The "Fusion" collection offers an approach to beauty through the marriage of two universes: the first, "perfect contrast", and the second, "pictorial material". One provides depth, while the other embodies the elegant occupation of space.

After working on the “Graphical Nature" collection, the artist turned to the minimalism of Asian culture. The meeting turns out to be compatible since the two art forms share the use of blank spaces. One enriches the other, creating a fusion of refined graphic powers.

This collection can be adapted to different formats, and it is possible that the artist will create more in the future.

Presentation

Merljn, the Artist of Harmonies.

Merljn is an artist who has taken a scientific approach to art, exploring the mixing of mediums, techniques, choice of medium and composition with deliberate intention. For him, beauty obeys laws, and the tools offered to artists form an obvious or undiscovered panel, requiring careful ordering.

His journey led him to unlearn to achieve authenticity, following the adage “know thyself". A spirit strongly opposed to constraint, boredom, mediocrity, lack of clarity about his work and the incomprehension of the spectator, he involuntarily followed in the footsteps of his predecessors. Rediscovering pointillism, naive painting, carbon copying, destructuring, science fiction or the imprecise approach, his main ideas have always been to take pleasure in what he does and to "rediscover the universe".

His progress was long and difficult. When a technique or way of representing had nothing more to offer and he did not find the exaltation he was looking for, it was up to the next one to move on. Being authentic also means renouncing what we dislike, especially if we had hopes of happiness there. Many times he wanted to stop everything.

Today, he thinks that his graphic art is not something that could occupy him every day from morning to evening. He is not looking for a technique that satiates him, but rather artistic variety. As in cooking, it is good to vary, not to be greedy, nor to die of hunger. Perhaps he is a wise artist.

He offered a lot of his works and, on principle, had never sold any. They are scattered all over the world, among the rich and the poor. Still others are used to fuel the barbecue fire. His opinion on the prices of his art is simple: if he needs money, he sells, otherwise, he offers. These are two facets of shared happiness.

His civil identity and details of his private life are not communicated. He sometimes tells by the fire that he once made a mistake in a spell, now finding himself stuck in St Tropez in a rejuvenated body, and that Arthur will know nothing about it. But that's another story...
