Andrée Weschler draws inspiration from her life and conveys her experiences through art, as stories. The use of her body as a medium has not always been her form of expression but is the result of an evolution of the private journal that she kept as a young girl when her thoughts could no longer be contained within the superficiality of its pages.

She explains:
If I had to sum up my art in just one word, it would be “diary”. My diary reflects whatI’ve been reading; it’s where I speak of the important events of my life, the traumas, the joys, the obsessions, the childhood memories; it’s where I keep the smells, the tastes, the sounds and the images that I have in my head and which I collect, and which, sooner or later, appear in my work, whether it’s something I’ve read, a title of a book that has inspired me, a story that my father had told me… The diary is where I recount my dreams, my reality.
I use my body conceptually through performance art and video art. In all my work, the body is emphasized, displayed and exposed. The body of the artist carries her ideas; it becomes her tool as well as her voice.
