Yves Decaudan - écume et roche noire

Marine painting "Foam and Black Rock" - 2026
This painting fully belongs to the currents of lyrical abstraction and abstract landscape, where elements of nature here, the marine world, are transfigured by emotion and matter.
Although the work is abstract, the title Foam and Black Rock or the evocation of a seascape immediately makes sense when reading the canvas.
The artist does not seek to copy the reality of a Breton or coastal landscape, but to convey its wild energy.
One can feel the power of the swell, the reassuring solitude of a sailing vessel’s form facing the storm, and the poetry of the changing lights of the coast.
It is a work that is raw in its materiality and highly sensitive in its handling of color.
