Description

The title of the painting combines the freshness of a popsicle on a stick with the warmth of the Jamaican reggae group led by Bob Marley, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh. We see a stylized polar bear (this is the representation of a ceramic bear that the artist owns) drifting on a water lily in a world of lush vegetation. This association constructs an image that is a priori surrealist, but which in truth only depicts our reality, that of climate change.

Thomas Loyatho, Mister freeze and the wailers
France  • 1984

Presentation

Thomas Loyatho is a French artist born in 1984 in New Aquitaine, he lives in Hasparren and works in La-Bastide-Clairence.

Artistic approach

Thomas Loyatho was born in 1984. His sister, his brother (also a painter) and he grew up in their father's studio (also a painter) like in a playroom! He holds degrees in spatial planning and environmental protection. In addition to being a visual artist, he is a mountain guide.

His experiments are multidisciplinary and in touch with the material. The use of poor or sober materials does not require a technology that would surpass it and make it obsolete, but on the contrary encourages stripping, to reopen the field of possibilities. These materials have in common the fact of having a much broader semantics than that of the molds in which we want to freeze them over time and in different spaces.

Exhuming is part of his approach, these experimental investigations reveal for him an aesthetic that must be the subject of a plastic presentation.

“Certain thoughts do not escape at the moment of pronouncing them, of formulating them, of figuring them on a canvas. But most of them remain abstract, fluid. These thoughts are materials that are not subject to figuration, it is impossible to contain them in the mold of words. They want to tell us that here, words are for those who have nothing to say."
