About The Artwork

Lockdown Harrington gardens: last of the series on lockdown and coronavirus (March-April 2020) Another example here of the feeling of the painter during this peculiar time in the world: a feeling of oppression, of imprisonment and of violence. This painting is neither "beautiful" or "light": it's a painting of fear, violence and desperation. The violence of the reds against the light touch of the blue skies gives an idea of enfermement. It's the idea that we are in self-isolation and beyond that we are facing a future that frightens us. It's more an expressionism painting than figurative really. It's an expression of a feeling. some parts of the painting have been covered by bits of paper on which was written: "lockdown self-isolation coronavirus". the paper has been covered by layers and layers of painting as usual on my work, only a tiny bit of paper still is visible on a left part of the painting. This bits of paper make the painting rough not smooth on the touch, with rough brush strokes on it. The painting is painted on the sides; protected by an acrylic varnish; ready to hang on a wall dated, signed, delivered with invoice (bill) and a certificate of authenticity April 2020 Acrylic on canvas

French figurative painter known for bold colourful urban landscapes. Member of society of SALON D'AUTOMNE Paris Member of the Taylor Foundation, Paris Feb. 2023 PARIS (salon Les Artistes Français) March 2023 : LONDON :THE OTHER ART FAIR August 2023: TOKYO ART CENTER, JAPAN Born in the outskirts of Paris. I live and work in Paris suburbs. Living in a big city for half my life has influenced my work. I have a fascination for cities: noisy, overwhelming and lively, yet hiding people loneliness. I paint mostly urban landscapes: the interiors (shops, cafe, theatre house) full of details and colourful with very few details for the people: they are just part of the scenery. I’ve worked for the theatre for ten years and that experience gave me a love of colours, of framing my subject a certain way. I’m not looking for the exact repliqua of the reality but for an emotion I want to convey in my paintings through colors. My work is made of lots of layers of acrylic on a canvas, quick rough brush strokes and vivid colours. I use acrylic because it’s a medium that corresponds to my character: I’m impatient and this material suits me for it allows my painting a speed, a raw aspect, sometimes violent; I work in a kind of urgency.
