Biography
Mathieu PIFFETEAU diffuses light into the geometric shapes of his abstract canvases. With no flat areas, the artist uses a gradation of colors from which he applies small squares of paint one by one. Thanks to an optical effect, the eye perceives light instead of the pixelated gradation of colors. Kinetic energy then appears all over the canvas, which seems to be traversed by an autonomous movement.
