"Intuitive geometry" Painting

Artist and designer from Shawinigan, Quebec, Canada, is a French Canadian artist whose work lies at the heart of uncharted territory. Since the early 1980s, REICROF (Michel Forcier dit) has been developing a pictorial oeuvre that deliberately places itself outside the conventional frameworks of figurative art, abstraction, abstract expressionism, and informal art. Trained in visual arts at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières (1979-1982) and then in architecture at the Université Laval in Quebec City (1982-1986), he is a visual artist whose work unfolds at the junction of material chaos and intellectual order. Articulating geometric abstraction and figural art, his approach lies in the veneration of the material. Using acrylic, plaster, and paper mounted on wood panel. , the artist transforms the surface into a rough and textured palimpsest that is central to his approach. His work is a philosophical quest into the nature of identity, memory, and hidden structures. The artist celebrates the tenacity of matter, showing that every idea is rooted in the sedimentation of time and fragments, an organic and eroded form that reflects the cosmic order, thanks to the noble resistance of matter.

Mastery of the Languages of Art at REICROF (Michel Forcier dit)

REICROF (Michel Forcier dit) does not limit himself to a single aesthetic, but masters and brings together several languages of art to pursue his philosophical quest. His work is distinguished by its ability to articulate three fundamental languages, each serving as a vehicle for a profound questioning of matter and identity. REICROF (Michel Forcier dit) is a painter of synthesis, whose work invites us to decode the beauty that emerges not despite chaos, but thanks to the noble resistance of matter. By mastering these three languages—the material (assembly), the abstract (geometry/color), and the figural (identity/body)—REICROF (Michel Forcier dit) succeeds in creating a rich dialogue and a coherent body of work, tirelessly pursuing his philosophical quest on the nature of Being in time and space.
