Biography

Born in 1968, Laurent Dorchin is a French self-taught painter, situating himself in the Art Brut movement.

A decisive meeting

It was at the age of 17 during a opening of the expressionist painter Ramon Grimalt that Dorchin discovered the world of painting and became passionate about the medium.

Fascinated by Grimault's raw art, he began to paint by exploring different media such as wood and canvas.

A happy and instinctive practice

Celebrating uninhibited art, Laurent Dorchin's work invites his audience on a journey where reality and imagination are intimately linked. He practices a happy and spontaneous art and expresses his joy, his emotions and his impulses through dynamic characters. The artist pays particular attention to the balance between matter, color and shapes, and places humor and laughter at the center of his work.
