This captivating work features a central figure with a somber face, animated by a hypnotic intensity through its piercing blue eyes. Its vibrant, bright blue hair contrasts sharply with the dark hues of its face. Beside it, an anthropomorphic creature, asymmetrically asymmetrical and brilliantly white, appears almost ethereal in its form. The background displays swirling reds and oranges, evoking an atmosphere of fire and passion. The flowing, curved lines weave an organic connection between the two figures, creating a visual harmony that immediately draws the eye. This unique composition captures the essence of dreams and raw emotion, blending human and fantastical elements in a dynamically contrasting visual ballet. The artist successfully fuses bold colors and fluid forms, producing a work that prompts reflection on duality and the connection between the inner and outer worlds.
I was inspired by a statue: Faun with a kid.
I imagined these two living beings, outside the human species, discovering with horror the evolution of Homo sapiens and liquefying with astonishment (dissolving). The title also suggests proposing ten solutions for hoping to live in harmony among all living beings: humans, animals, plants, and of course, our habitat: the Earth. Without conflict, without pollution, and therefore without the quest for power.
You will notice my old signature both on the front and back of the canvas: an S next to a T in a circle. Now, I sign Shank ARTE, which reflects my origins.
Shank Arte lives in Mérignac and works in Bordeaux.
He has been drawing since kindergarten and will always be drawn to artistic creation.
He started photography in 1998 and learned the B&W lab in 1999, then developed his practice with regular photo workshops (shooting – by Gérard Vallet) from 2000 to 2009 (Studio or outdoor shooting) - analog and digital.
In 2004 he enrolled in oil painting classes with the artist Catherine BOUYX in Bordeaux.
Shank Arte enrolled in 2008 at the Condé school (Créasud) in Bordeaux for a foundation course in applied arts. He obtained his BTS in Visual Communication in 2011.
He created a digipak CD (for Gloom), various logos, posters, wedding invitations, business cards, and illustrations until 2014, when a professional opportunity to manage a pharmacy brought him to Mayotte. Indeed, after completing his pharmacy studies in 2000 and obtaining his doctorate in pharmacy in 2002, he practiced as a pharmacist.
Before flying to Mayotte, he had time to take private oil painting lessons from the artist Valentin CARO.
