Du rêve à la réalité

Here are a few images of my studio during the production of my piece shown at the Eaton Center of Montreal for La Nuit Blanche 2012. The installation will be on display for another two weeks.

It's worth the visit !

Jaguar Woman - 3D

Who is scared of the Big Bad Wolf ? 3D

Here's a 3D rendering of my sculpture, if you have regular paper 3D glasses, you will experience the 3D view ...

Ape man in 3D

If you have 3D glasses, in Canada you can get them at videotron video stores, you will be able to see my last production in 3D.
It's acrylic and vinylic paint on wood and PVC.

TARZAN is framed !

The painting is a 3D piece, produced on aluminum layers, separated at an equal distance from each other by aluminum spacers. The effect is a bit like a cartoon background or a theatre set. The piece is framed in a woden box. It's size : 53 inches hihgt, 72 inches wide, depth 12 inches.
To get a better idea of the 3D effect, watch the video below .

Talking about the graphic line...

This quote from an interview in Le Monde (1973) of the Cartoonist Herge, the creator of TINTIN, defines really well my philosophy of the graphic line, the essence of my visual research.

«Sawing the drawings of (Roy) Lichtenstein I’ve been fascinated by the similarity between the production of his drawings and mines. We can feel that it’s cleaned: there’s only one line at the end, not 36, this line is going to be decisive: it as to be well selected, there’s a lot of work before finding that line. We feel that in his sketches – and I know that he estimates TINTIN for the same reasons: this violent work on the paper and then we “cool down” the drawing, keeping only the best line at the end. The line that seems to embody, to the artist who draws it, all the energy, all the movement. »

Here below a few images from one of my last works to illustrate the work on the line: “The Archangel” production sketches to the finished piece composed of aluminum and wood layers, painted with Flash and real 23 K gold leafs.

This 3D piece measures 36 X 48 X 12 inches (depth) it has been showed at Joyce Yahouda Gallery, 372 Sainte Catherine street West, Suite 516, Montreal.
