The goalkeeper.

Félix was born in France in 1976. He lives and works in the South West of France.
"A full-time self-taught artist for over a decade, my artistic identity is deeply rooted in an obsession and bulimia for the act of painting and creating.
This obsession is clearly manifested in my distinctive technique, a process I have developed that is a form of “scratching.”
This method deliberately alters the surface of the canvas - and more recently also the surface of my sculptures - at a precise moment of creation, highlighting the most powerful trace of the brush. This surface-destructive approach aims to explore what lies "beneath" the oil paint, whether the canvas itself, an underlying color, a drawing, a painted image or the painted volume. In short, it seeks to reveal the truth hidden behind what is visible, perhaps my own identity.
The repetitive pattern that I use, evoking waves, clouds, hills, even scales, depending on the viewer's interpretation, allows me to navigate between figuration and abstraction without hindrance.
Currently, my drawing is voluntarily reduced to its simplest expression, just like the shapes of my sculptures."
