Why Kamala Harris? "Her nomination is the marker of the American elections, she represents the fundamental values of America: freedom, equality, fraternity, but also diversity."

She was the big surprise of the American election campaign. Kamala Harris, born in 1964 in Oakland, California, Attorney General of California and then Senator, chosen by the Democrat Joe Biden as vice president, boosted the campaign of the challenger of Donald Trump. A very media-friendly opponent, "intelligent, strong, ready to lead", who annoys the opposing camp. Born of an Indian mother and a Jamaican father, she embodies a new generation of women ready to fight against social inequalities and to give meaning to the often forgotten term "servant of the state".

Bio

Jules de Balincourt is a 46 year old French-American painter who lives between Brooklyn, Costa Rica and Paris. His palette borrows its tone from the Fauvist expressionists as well as from psychedelic painters.

His strong colors and free forms can be as enchanting as they are disturbing. His universe - the innumerable details of the cities he paints, his trees with their endless branches, the eerie vegetation of his virgin forests, his interiors where the furniture seems alive - is sometimes reminiscent of the British painter Peter Doig. Even if he defends himself: "I try to overcome the darkness by painting the light."
