Sans titre III
The works of Kittie Bruneau are often in harmony with those of the painters Appel or Miro. Her style is also regularly compared to the artistic movement CoBrA, which advocated a return to the natural primitive. However, this comparison ends quickly because Bruneau has her own aesthetic which reflects an inner world. The simplification of the form is used by the artist to convey to the viewers the emotions she wishes to share.
Bernard Paquet wrote in Vie des arts this about Bruneau's works: "The exuberance of the colours and the marked arabesque of the lines, the abundance of animal representations, the almost childish graphics of the image of the bodies and the suggestion half-human masks contribute to giving the work a festive, carnival-like atmosphere that seems to be dreamy"- Bernard Paquet (1995). "Kittie Bruneau: The Carnival of Mythologies", Vie des arts, Vol. 39, No. 158, p. 49-55.
