When most people have only one passion, or at least dedicate themselves regularly to it at best, Chloé Trujillo has always done everything to devote herself completely to all her passions and since her childhood, her life to diverse forms of art, ranging from singing to painting.
A hereditary passion, probably, maintained by a family environment swarming with artists of any kind (her grand-parents were musicians and her parents designers) and by a taste for escape through spirituality which was amazingly inspired by her science studies. “Amazingly”, because we would naturally have a tendency to match art and science, whereas for Chloé, both are mixed. Mathematics can make the imagination work, just like the search for an artistic alchemy can come from a logical one.
The meaning and the profound reason of her art grow on Chloé only afterwards. She finds indeed sad that medias in general favour some artistically empty hits and that creativity is not encouraged. Whether it is by the medias or the French educative system, which she compares to the american one, maybe less academic, but more attractive and modern.
These human views are well needed by our « plastic » society which is maybe discovering them again. A simplicity which makes the commercial monster that is Metallica (« the family » as she names it), which her husband Robert Trujillo is part of, more human. During this very long interview (one hour and a half !) that a really friendly and natural Chloé gave us, we nearly reach the Metallica myth, but with an unconventional look, the one of an everyday wife. And, through numerous anecdotes, we discover a charming couple, a family which tries to be discrete, instead of its notoriety. An enjoyable read that we strongly recommend, hoping that some people will avoid seeing only business in a successful band.
