Description
This provocative artwork blends surrealism and expressionism with remarkable boldness. The central figure, with exaggerated curves and fluid movements, is both intriguing and unsettling. The pale skin, accentuated by angular shoulders, contrasts with the vibrant hues of the blue and glowing red hair, evoking a living flame. The facial features are marked by a resolute expression, almost defying the viewer.
The textured grey background adds extra depth, allowing the figure to stand out powerfully. Touches of blue and black adorn the composition, adding a dramatic dimension. The attention to detail, such as the stylized breasts and the black-sheathed legs, underscores a bold exploration of the human form. This painting challenges with its chaotic energy and artistic mastery.
"Desire, death, and anguish intertwine in this feminine figure where attributes of the Hindu goddess Kali are invited: skull, protruding tongue, trampling of a masculine figure. My phantasmagorical imagination expresses itself and liberates this White Kali."
Presentation
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.
