Luna Kol is a French artist born in Cambodia. After the Red Khmers seized power in 1975, her family fled the country and moved to France. As she adjusted to a new culture, Luna discovered art as a way to heal and express herself.

Early in her career, Luna focused on figurative drawing, with women and nudes being her primary subjects. However, she later shifted her focus to abstract painting, which allowed her to explore raw emotions and her personal history more deeply.

Luna takes a unique approach to her painting, using solely oil paint pigments that she blends and transforms herself to create unique colors and textures. A constant thread running through Luna's works is her connection to her background, particularly her experiences traveling abroad. Instead of painting memories, she imbues the canvas with the energies of the places, people and cultures that have inspired her.
