Sebastien Coutheillas

Born in 1983. Paris, France.

I work automatically, letting the subject and clues emerge from spontaneous action on the surface.
This approach results in a succession of free-form works which, ranging from postcard size to human scale, constitute as a whole a path of self-exploration. A combination of paint, drawing, marks, collage of printed images, my work often plays on the tension between abstraction and figuration, and primarily rests on the materiality of the picture, as the main way to connect to the viewer's body and feeling.
