Born Gemma Annick Edmonde Harbulot on March 23, 1937 in Nouméa, Gemmanick is a Neo-Caledonian symbolist painter of Irish origin. Coming from two large pioneering families of the territory, she grew up between New Caledonia and the New Hebrides. Early on, at twelve, she discovered painting, first inspired by Pacific landscapes and the mining world where her family worked.
In 1963, the death of her brother marked a decisive turning point: she abandoned realism to create her own pictorial language which she named Nuances, a sensitive, spiritual and vibrant universe. Her early exhibitions in Nouméa, notably in 1965 and 1969, met with stunning success.
Discovered by Seiji Tōgō, a member of the Tokyo Academy of Fine Arts, she exhibited in 1971 at Nichido Gallery in Ginza. In 1973, her canvas Aquarescence won the grand prize at the Nika Kai salon. On Tōgō’s advice, she settled in Paris in 1975, where she exhibited at Galerie Vendôme; David de Rothschild purchased one of her works there.
In 1977, her canvas Carnaval under the Sea became an Aubusson tapestry, making her the first overseas artist woven at Aubusson. The work was even reproduced on a stamp in 1978. She then pursued an international career, exhibiting in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Germany.
