Reine Paradis French, b. 1989

Born in the vibrant landscapes of Southern France in 1989, Reine Paradis paints narratives through the lens of her captivating photography. Her works serve as visual tales, where she takes center stage against surreal, chromatic backdrops. Draped in vivid hues that contrast with the scenery, she constructs a dreamlike world that challenges the very boundaries between reality and imagination. Across America's diverse locales, Paradis weaves a colorful tapestry that invites viewers into a realm of symbolic wonder.

The 2020 documentary "Queen of Paradis" peels back the curtain on the creation of her latest series, "Midnight," unveiling the intricate process that fuels her artistic expeditions. Before capturing a single shot, Paradis meticulously sketches and conceptualizes each scene, blending imagination with real-world settings. Her dedication to detail is evident in the elaborate costumes, meticulously crafted accessories, and precisely designed origami pieces, all meticulously aligned with the initial vision. With each meticulous setup, Paradis curates a vibrant stage where surrealism meets reality, inviting her audience to witness her colorful symphony.
