Description from the seller
Bertrand Thomassin (born in 1963) – 'Life', circa 2024
Oil on canvas – 50 × 50 cm
This work bears witness to Bertrand Thomassin's immediately recognizable universe, where enigmatic characters, imaginary animals and everyday symbols mingle in a free and spontaneous composition. Through a vivid palette and instinctive drawing, the artist builds an open narrative, oscillating between humor, poetry and reflection on the human condition.
Entitled 'Life', this oil on canvas gathers a multitude of figures that seem to dialog in a space without points of reference. The expressive silhouettes, hybrid creatures and discreet inscriptions create a fragmented narration, leaving the viewer free to imagine their own story. True to his pictorial language, Thomassin combines the energy of gesture, sensitivity and imagination in a work rich in detail.
Born in 1963, Bertrand Thomassin is a French artist trained at the Beaux-Arts of Rouen. Initially recognized for his sculptures made from driftwood and reclaimed materials, he also developed a singular pictorial oeuvre, at the border of brut art and contemporary figuration. His work, imbued with freedom and humanity, is today presented in numerous galleries and private collections in France.
