RACHEL
OUGIER SIMONIN
ArtROCBasel brings beauty inside.
WOMAN ARTIST ENTREPRENEUR
Rachel Ougier Simonin has had multiple lives - senior executive, entrepreneur, proud Mum of a little girl and artist!
​
She grew up in a little village in the French Alps. She is used to doing art and crafts since she is little, with an art teacher dad who would entertain the family!
​
While she always painted, she worked for 20 years in Paris, she moved with her family from Paris to Basel (Switzerland) in 2017 and settled in there.
​
While Rachel had a good career, she had to go through a lot on a personal level: the loss of her Mum, 8 years of fertility treatments and a painful divorce.
​​
She decided to transform this journey into Art.
With her painting, Rachel did not only found a way to escape and restore her peace of mind. Her paintings are powerful, and express how women can be independent and strong, but also delicate.
​
Her dream is that if we surround ourselves with beauty, then we will feel well and live great lives.
She aims at turning homes and offices into the cozy cocoon where people feel good and are at their best.

"I wish you to be positively touched as you look at your painting - every day!" Rachel
