MURSIC - PRINTANIER

Gérard Mursic's subjects are as rich and varied. Natural landscapes, seascapes, urban environments, still lifes, or floral arrangements are evoked in the artist's oil paintings in a spontaneous and fleeting manner. Evocation is indeed at the heart of his approach, which favors intuition over expression, sensuality over intellect.
Proceeding by additions, removals, and wipes, the artist develops a singular technique producing subtle effects or, conversely, dynamic movements. In the manner of watercolor, he favors white, placing contrast at the heart of the composition. "The canvas is a search, an exploration," says Gérard Mursic. Working with forms and colors, varying rhythms and experimenting with lights and textures, the artist cherishes the interactions between what complements each other yet does not resemble one another.
For it is instinct that shapes the painter's raw material. Freed from the constraints of drawing and representation, Gérard Mursic lets himself be carried away by his themes into the creative whirl. Along the way, the subject sometimes evaporates, disperses, or gets lost, obliging the viewer to engage in turn in the aesthetic process, taking ownership of the canvas and projecting their imagination onto it.
