Olivier Vincent
Polyurethane paint
Olivier is a French self-taught artist born in 1970 in Seoul. He works and lives in France in the Rhône Alpes region. Olivier Vincent has a particular talent: great sensitivity combined with a deep sense of humor. Inspired by the greatest contemporary artists (Keith Haring, Ron Arad, etc.), Olivier knows how to add originality to his creations, linked to the mastery of his technique, which makes him a talented artist. Olivier seeks in forms and materials, the pleasure of the senses: the forms nourish the eyes, excite the touch. His shapes are sensual to the extreme, his colors a palette of visual flavors. Artist or magician, he brings up emotions buried in our subconscious, a quest for happiness, which we sometimes consider childish in our dehumanized world. His shadows are anonymous and fraternal living beings, united for the time of a game. In 2006, Olivier began to create his series of “Shadows” on large aluminum panels. The shadows intertwine, merge, play with the spectator. The bright colors and the effects of relief and material give life to a joyful farandole of ephemeral shapes. Attracted, fascinated, the eye seeks a landmark, a direction in this colorful fantasia. Respite of the soul, awakening of the senses, each work of Olivier appeals to the sensitivity and sensuality of each of us.
