A l'Origine - Salon d'Automne Paris -2020 Painting

This painting is a tribute to the city, it’s a very personal one that unveils a great deal of me. This ever-changing cities have always fascinated me: it’s where lives swarm, blossom, live and die before our eyes. If the city shines with its colors, if it stuns with its noises and smells, it can also hide behind these colourful curtains and these grey white walls, the solitude, the unspoken and the violence. It is by the pictorial style and the colours that I express this ambivalence. The bright colors of the windows give life and cheerfulness to the buildings with harmonious architecture but sometimes too strict and without imagination. The colours of modern buildings and the sun that illuminates them are opposed to the small houses in the foreground, imprisoned without light between two recent buildings. We see the effect of gentrification, the disappearance of social diversity. The rapid brushstrokes, the successive layers of paint, the use of paint with no water have the effect of breaking the idea of a naive urban landscape, calm and soothed. The pictorial style is fast, dynamic and bold. It is made up of successive, rapid layers that underline the urban madness. Acrylic on stretched canvas on wooden frame, protected by an bright acrylic varnish, to enhance the colours. The sides of the painting are protected by a white ribbon: no need to frame.
