Lancelot Blondeel

Lancelot Blondeel (b. 1988) is a contemporary painter based in residence in Le Pré-Saint-Gervais. His practice centers on a gestural approach, where painting becomes a response to movement. With a background in engineering, he brings a scientific perspective to the construction of his works.

Lancelot Blondeel engages with painting in a tactile, almost sculptural way by scraping, sanding, adding or removing layers. He works with raw materials such as pigments, acrylic mediums, canvas, and varnish, often applying them with handmade tools like squeegees.

Each canvas holds a trace of the artist’s movement, capturing physical gestures that freeze a dynamic presence on the surface.

Through abstraction, Lancelot Blondeel explores how human consciousness shapes our perception of reality. Rather than depict the external world, his work invites introspection and a deeper awareness of how we experience what is real.
