Presentation

Hugo Duras ;

Artist, painter and sculptor, Hugo Duras "writes" a unique expression abiding by his own grammar.

He enjoys a hide-and-seek of shapes, forms, materials and colours.

He is able to intertwine different techniques and media, mixing figurative and abstract universes.

His paintings are clearly influenced by the post-impressionist and surrealist period of which he is particularly fond of.

His hand is free, he creates numerous "scenographies" or a few life " details " perfectly improvised with a somewhat candid, child-like and poetic allure.... Young and Old alike can then make up their own stories, their own poetry...

Finally, he breaks the "fourth wall" which stands between his scenes and us, the viewers.

So, we enter an surprising universe, alive and of multiple perspectives which are never still...


 

Hugo Duras is also a state-qualified artistic contributor. He defines himself by his sensitivity and his desire to communicate through the arts.

His work is recognised and backed by the Regional Fund for Contemporary Art of Brittany (FRACB) to which he has been invited as part of the formation of « L'Art en tout Petit », since 2012.

Invited to the Ministry of Culture in 2020, Hugo Duras is part of the " Giraffe Awards " jury organised by the association Agir pour la Petite Enfance.

He is also a tutor at the EJE (Educator of Young Children) school in Nantes, as well as at the Centre National de la Fonction Publique Territoriale Bretagne (CNFPT B).


 

He often expresses " Encouraging free expression and art for all, is opening up to worlds... ".


 

His paintings and sculptures can be seen at the Atelier-Galerie Le56. 56, rue de l'Hermitage (Butte Sainte-Anne) 44100 Nantes 

He lives and works in Nantes (France) where he was born in 1975
