Sans titre Painting

“Seba Lallemand: The fortune of the misfortune of being creative, of being a true artist.” by Oliviero Toscani The true creative, the true artist, has everything against himself, all trends, all snobbism, he is beyond all fashions, he is simply creative. Not everybody can allow himself to be an artist; it takes courage in assuming all the happy unhappiness, of a destiny dedicated to art and to creativity. Because creativity is genesis, birth, divine force, energy, fantasy, suffering, dedication, faith, generosity. Creativity needs energy and courage but lives in total insecurity. You cannot be creative and be secure. Seba Lallemand is in his way, the most interesting artist I met in Fabrica while I was director. Always propositive, independent from technology, he always managed to surprise, with his creative proposals, with a vision that comes from an uncomfortable angle. Seba is a true artist, with the cursed fortune of having the misfortune of being creative, meaning: damned, unhappy, alone, visionary, insecure, misunderstood, diabolic, suffering, genius, subversive, generous.
