Biography
Born in Paris in 1971 Foucaud Stéphane used to say that he was born for a second at a time in 1974, the date of his arrival on the Yam Island (New Caledonia). A land still to be demystified which nourishes his artistic work charged with myths and syncretisms. His experience in a tribal environment will serve as the imprint of a pictorial practice begun during his studies of plastic arts at the faculty of Strasbourg. Scarifications and cut-out, simplified forms will impose themselves on the canvas as if the omnipresence of sculptures, markers of Kanak lands were hidden there. His expressiveness, described as “neo-tribal" by his public, will naturally turn towards Oceania and its various cultures. The local melting pot will have given him the "signs" for a mixed and rhizophagous style, making the spontaneous gestures of his brushstroke cohabit with the finesse of the pen drawing.
