Lilou Aurelie H (LAH) was born into a family deeply rooted in the art world. From an early age, she was immersed in creativity. Her grandfather was a painter in Flanders and her great-uncle was a renowned art dealer in London. Gifted from childhood, she naturally gravitated towards drawing, often capturing portraits and abstract landscapes. At just 20 years old, she found herself at the heart of the art scene, hosting vernissages for her stepfather's gallery in Lille. It was during one of these events that she witnessed a moment of pure magic: an artist, overcome with emotion, stepped back and spilled a glass of wine onto his own canvas. This work became her most memorable sale, a moment that sealed her connection to the art world. However, life took her down a different path. She left for Australia, then returned to Europe to pursue a career as an international buyer in the industry. Although far from her paintbrushes, her artistic eye remained sharp. She travels extensively, capturing the world through photography. Over the years, she continues to organize exhibitions, welcoming French and international artists into her home and fostering creative exchanges. At the age of 40, the call of art becomes irresistible. She resumed her practice, enrolling at the Beaux-Arts in Aix-en-Provence to perfect her skills in life drawing, painting, and sketching. In 2024, she officially returned to painting with a renewed vision, preparing her exhibition of the ART & WINE Collection—an artistic fusion of her greatest passions. A globetrotter and multipotentialite, LAH sees exploration as a way of life. Her work reflects a life rich in experiences, where art is not just a practice, but a way of life. She is drawn to beauty, luxury, and anything that brings pleasure to the senses.
Through the ART & WINE Collection, Lilou Aurélie H invites collectors into a unique sensory journey where contemporary art becomes a gateway to discovering exceptional wines. Each artwork is conceived as a dialogue between the canvas and an outstanding bottle, carefully selected from inspiring vineyards and visionary winemakers.
More than a visual experience, the collection offers an intimate way to discover amazing bottles of wine through art — revealing their energy, character and story beyond traditional tasting rituals.
Alongside this flagship collection, LAH is currently developing new bodies of work exploring memory, movement, light and material, expanding her artistic universe through future collections and large-scale projects. These upcoming series continue her exploration of art as a living experience, bridging contemporary painting, storytelling and immersive perception.
Her practice also extends beyond the canvas through bespoke wall paintings and site-specific interventions. Each wall project is conceived in close dialogue with the space and its inhabitants, transforming walls into original artworks that resonate with the architecture, the energy of the place and the identity of those who live or work there. From private residences to hotels, restaurants and exceptional venues, her murals become lasting artistic signatures embedded in the space itself.
Taste the Art. Drink the Story.
