Description
The raw energy of the street settles on the canvas. This composition plays on a rigorous geometric breakdown. It fragments the space into several distinct chromatic zones. The gesture is fast. The lines intertwine with a controlled spontaneity.
The artist explores total abstraction here. He moves away from traditional lettering to favor rhythm and movement. The contrast between the saturated backgrounds and the fluid strokes creates a striking visual depth. Red, blue, and orange oppose each other in a dynamic balance.
The technique mixes the precise use of the spray can and the material of acrylic. The rendering evokes the patina of urban walls. Each segment becomes a field of graphic experimentation. The eye circulates without interruption between the shapes and the flat areas.
This painting from 2021 captures the essence of contemporary street art. It transforms the codes of graffiti into a sophisticated plastic research. The work concludes with precise linear details and shades of neutral gray.
Presentation
Guillaume Lemarquier alias Mist was born in Paris in 1972. He is a street artist, and more specifically a graffiti artist, an art that he discovered in 1988.
He became recognized very quickly as one of the most talented and respected graffiti artists in Paris and as one of the best artists making "wild style" graffiti lettering in Europe. He has marked the generation that gave birth to what was to become street-art culture.
His style and his collaborations with artists such as Tilt, Steph Cop, T. Kid or Bando brought him international fame.
He is one of the pioneers of the designer toys phenomenon, (the small vinyl sculptures).
The construction lines of his letters and their contours have disappeared from his works; it took him more than 10 years of work in the studio, making place to an abstraction whose dynamism and spontaneity stayed intact. The patina of his backgrounds still shows the stigmata from the abandoned walls that he knows so well.
Contemplating a painting by Mist gives us the opportunity to lose ourselves in an abstract and hypnotic composition combining urban and contemporary art.
