About The Artwork
This work is a videoprojection with the composer and videomaker Renaldo Gournier on an encaustic painting on 16:9 format plywood frame (200 x 122 x 3,5 cm) The painting is a flesh-coloured world map and it is a work of art of its own. You can watch the video on my website at http://pierrefauret.alwaysdata.net./video/ Climate change, tectonic movement of the Earth's crust (and deeper), multiple theaters of war...here are some visual clues to this video. The video is supplied on an USB dongle and must be projected on the painting in a 16:9 format. I work with hot liquid synthetic wax and white beeswax in addition with damar resin to increase the heat resistance. I directly add oil paint from the tubes or pure pigments(here different flesh/pink hues) I use an heat gun or an iron to make the wax layers (and thus the colors) merge. This old encaustic technique allows me to enjoy the flexibility of wax and the intensity it gives to oil colours. Keep the work away from direct heat source (e.g sun, heating device under the canvas...) Signed & dated on the back

France
I currently live and work in Toulouse, SW France, the region where I was born in 1963.. Trained as a scientist I practised for some time as a part-time veterinary surgeon. As a self-taught artist (thanks to all those who helped and guided me), my first works were marble and bronze sculptures of wild animals - my ambition at the time was to produce objects of beauty. Then my scientific background and a better knowledge of art history drove me to explore the living and artistic worlds more deeply, together with the need to “use” animals to represent various facets of human behaviour. Thus appeared animal, anatomical and organic figures for which metamorphosis and hybridization are often central themes. While I like to work with different mediums and materials depending on my creational purpose, wax has come to predominate for me in both sculpture and painting. I also currently work with artist Luc Laumet, one notable example being our recent Drawing correspondence: 260 drawing exchanged beetween 14 December 2016 and 5 December 2017 http://pierrefauret.com/dessins-croises/ ....................................................................................
