Artwork location: France

This artwork features an enigmatic coastal scene, capturing the essence of a world that is both familiar and surreal. Two enigmatic figures, dressed in dark suits decorated with colorful lines, stand at the edge of a rough sea. Their silhouettes, devoid of distinct features, accentuate the mysterious mood. The cloudy sky, punctuated by floating balloons, contrasts with the dull atmosphere, adding a touch of dreaminess to the whole. The circularity of the frame, reinforced by the round format, guides the eye and gives a singular harmony to the composition. The bold application of texture, almost tactile, makes each detail almost alive. This juxtaposition of styles and refined forms makes the work intriguing and engaging, inviting the viewer to explore this imaginary landscape and immerse themselves in its silent story.

Ti Ban, Enigma - scène de vie onirique inspiré du paysage d'Hourtin plage, presqu'île du Médoc
France  • 1966

Presentation

Born on a peninsula bordered by mud and sand that was still wild at the time, my art school was a neglected 11th century abbey, and my teacher was a sculptor from Berlin, thirty years my senior. I discovered pictorial design, Kunstforum, art history and beauty. Then I worked intensively with a painter from Zurich. He said: ‘You were painting emptiness with sand’. So he took away all the tricks, and all I had was brushes. I met the Art of Painting. He used to say: ‘Painting is like a woman, she's beautiful when she has pretty underwear’. I understood the background, the tricks, the values.

Since then, I've always painted in parallel with a pure painting, the second narrative. I've cut back on the primary colours to avoid the illusion of their brightness, and reduced the palette to capture them as best I can, to capture the atmosphere, to try to tame the light. I always enter a painting as if I were in a field, only to emerge as if from a garden. Step by step I paint, leaving the painting alone, from the back, to draw its image, to perfect its demands.

I always paint with stage fright because I know that painting begins where man's steps end.
