Yehiel Attias

Born in 1993 in Paris, Yehiel Attias self-taught painter has been dedicating himself to drawing since his early childhood. He tried his hand at different mediums and techniques pencil, pastel, watercolor, acrylic, but his research always more pushed towards the exploration of the colors led him to discover the oil painting which never left him.

He finds inspiration in the world around him, nature, the street, the people he meets, a simple reflection of light on the body of a car can be the starting point of a new work.

He represents life and subjects not as they are but as he perceives them, in perpetual movement full of light and colors.

For Yehiel Attias a work is an open window to another world, the imaginary world of the artist. The magic of the canvas serves as a passage in his vision, a work is only complete if it mixes realism and abstraction with balance.

He subtly plays between different contrasts of monochrome black and white and color in order to bring out the light and focus the attention on the subject and thus make it alive.
