Jean-Christophe Lévêque

France

Biography

Firstly, I choose a pattern that will lead my work aiming at creating some various paintings. Every single pattern is of diverse kinds, that is, chromatic, landscape-themed or macro-viewed. The format will also play a key role in the pictorial construction. The guidelines of the painting are set in the course of its construction, from one session to another. 

Most constituent parts are left to chance, I do not plan ahead. My painting is characterized by its gestures. I gradually immerse myself in the composition and I explore it from the inside, combining diverse plastic components in order to create my own artistic language. I seek unity in the whole composition that would combine both dynamic shapes and strokes and stability.
