Sportiello - En mode sans échec

I am a visual artist and painter, trained at the School of Fine Arts and a former journalist for the written press. My work is based on graphic improvisation, the fusion of line and color. My aesthetics are rooted in a lineage that ranges from prehistoric arts, street art and comics, through surrealism, 1980s’ free figuration, painting of the 14th century, Hieronymus Bosch, Picasso, and Jean-Michel Basquiat.
Anchored in drawing, my work develops as a form of spontaneous art made of colorful and chaotic images, mirrors of the world and of my own imagination. Meaning and structure emerge a posteriori, like a labyrinthine work in progress, a kaleidoscope of signs drawn from archetypes, universal symbols, but also from the world as it unfolds, embedded in scraps of autobiography and winks to the history of art.
