Premium cotton / synthetic canvas Extra-fine acrylic painting, moldings, metal leaves with 24 carats gold and silver leaves Chromatherapy Vol.1 is an exercise of both syncretism and symbolic interpretation. As a reminder syncretism is, according to the Larousse dictionary: The synthesis of two or more cultural traits of different origin, giving rise to new cultural forms ; An archaic system of thought and perception, consisting of a comprehensive and confused perception of different elements. My approach involved the two definitions above : I decided to paint in a single artwork things and symbols coming from completely different contexts. As if my understanding could be suddenly upset, leaving me with my knowledge and souvenirs, all mixed. A jigsaw puzzle made of many boxes. The symbolic interpretation, as for it, is our reflex to transform sensory data (images, gestures, shapes, colors, etc.) to “clues” or “symbols” to understand what is happening, or, here, what we see. This painting invites us then, despite ourselves, to do mentally the splits since nothing seems to link traditional Aztec figures to a French airplane (the Mystery IV), Christian symbols (stars) to autumnal tree leaves, or a spacecraft to European XIXth century ornamental motifs (themselves Arab-inspired). Each element is so incongruous against his neighbor. All complemented by more or less abstract elements with a constant desire to create a coherent and harmonious composition despite the cacophony. The order in disorder in other words.
