Who is pier?

Son of parents working abroad, pier, also known as Pierre Sullice, spent his childhood and adolescence in Latin America. It was during his stay in Ecuador, thanks to the friendship of his son-in-law, that he discovered the work of Oswaldo Guayasamín and awakened to the plastic arts. Since that day, he has continually passionate about painting, particularly modern and contemporary.

After studying modern literature and philosophy, pier joined La Fémis before writing his first fiction screenplay, the tale of a painter exiled in the Cévennes who discovers a materialist approach to painting thanks to a mentally disabled man. Entitled “Les bois transparents,” the screenplay won the Cent Premières œuvres, a competition set up by France Télévisions. Pier directed the film himself, which was broadcast on France 3, RFO and TMC and won in many festivals.

Without renouncing writing, reading and audiovisual animation, pier continues his exploration of the plastic arts, creating numerous collages inspired by drawings by children. In 2023, after ending his career in audiovisual, he settled in the Gard to devote himself exclusively to painting.

Thriving in his Lecques studio, pier broadens his pictorial exploration by working on recycled paper supports or decorative canvases on stretchers through acrylic painting, markers or pastel. In doing so, he openly aligns himself with an Art Brut and Cobra current that owes as much to Chaissac as to Karel Appel, Alechinsky or Lindström. By blending spontaneity and humor, he forges a personal path that leads to a cornucopia of characters both surprising and endearing.
