Working with a range of A-list clients in Hong Kong and beyond, Elsa Jean de Dieu translates her artistic talents into beautiful wall art that tells a thousand stories
The aged wall effect which Jean de Dieu created for Osteria Felice in Admiralty
To Hong Kong-based painter and visual artist Elsa Jean de Dieu and her eponymous design atelier, a wall is a place on which to compose stories. Specialising in creating textures and special paint effects, the French artist — who has been living in the territory since 2008 — has made her name with works for a range of high profile clients. These include the luxurious interiors specially created for iconic figures such as Delphine Arnault from LVMH, Princess Caroline of Monaco, and various members of the royal families of Iran and Morocco.
“A bare wall tells no particular story, but once it has been painted with colours or hung with artworks, the space develops a strong personality, a nice atmosphere and a special energy,” says Jean de Dieu, who describes herself as a ‘wall designer’.
