A Living Gallery - Where Art Becomes Encounter
ArtZone is not a silent, static gallery.
It’s a living space, where art is not just displayed - it is shared, celebrated, and experienced.
With every exhibition, we open our doors to true connection:
- Between artists and visitors
- Between artworks and emotions
- Between generations, cultures, and perspectives
Our vernissage openings are highlights of the calendar: you can enjoy a glass of wine, meet the artists, explore their creative journeys, ask questions, take your time, and feel the energy of the moment.
But ArtZone is more than exhibitions. It’s also:
- Live readings, performances, and demonstrations
- Artist residencies and public workshops
And sometimes… moments of shared silence in front of an artwork that speaks for itself
Because we believe that art is most powerful when it brings people together, ArtZone is designed as a cultural home - rooted in our local community, but open to the world.

The Event
Starting on 14 February, ArtZone Gallery is pleased to welcome Lyon-based artist Sylvie Perrin, also known as Queenofclay, for an exceptional six-week exhibition. Dive into a universe where urban art meets the finesse of ceramics, through a collection of vibrant, uplifting and resolutely contemporary works.
The Art of Metamorphosis: Artistic Approach
Sylvie Perrin brings the city back to life. Using upcycling techniques, she salvages advertising and event posters from the streets of Lyon and transforms them into dynamic collages.
- Urban Memory: Each collage is named after a street or neighbourhood in Lyon, paying tribute to the raw origin of the material.
- Shine & Resin: Her works are enhanced by a glossy layer of resin, creating a striking contrast between the raw street paper and a luxurious finish.
- Back to the Source: Alongside her collages, the artist explores ceramics, a nod to her career as a modelling-clay illustrator, creating a dialogue between volume and surface.
About the Artist
A graduate of the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Lyon, Sylvie Perrin has built an international career between Paris, the Netherlands and New York, where she worked as Art Director for the TV channel BET.
Today, she exhibits her work in prestigious galleries in France and abroad (United States, Netherlands). Signing her pieces Queenofclay, she has established herself as a key figure in contemporary art, blending mixed media techniques with joyful, uplifting emotions.
