Cyril Keller - C'est La Vie

My name is Cyril Keller. I was born on September 12, 1978 in the Saarland.

My passion for art began in the early 1990s with graffiti. Even then I was fascinated by colors, shapes, and the possibility of giving my ideas a distinct expression. This passion still forms the foundation of my work today.

I was especially shaped by my teacher and mentor, the artist Parscha Mirghawameddin. It is with him that I learned to paint. His sense for color, his eye for composition, and his artistic experience were of great importance to my development. As his student, I could benefit from a knowledge and a passion that still accompany me today.

I am very grateful to Parscha for sharing his experiences with me and for supporting me on my artistic path. Learning from him was a special opportunity for me. On this basis I developed my own visual language and found my personal approach to painting.

Since 2015 I have been passionately dedicated to abstract art. I am especially fascinated by the squeegee technique: the interplay of color layers, the resulting textures, and the surprising forms that give each painting its own character. In this process, learned craft combines with intuition and the joy of experimentation.

My paintings are meant to enliven spaces, evoke emotions, and give viewers lasting pleasure. Each work leaves room for personal thoughts and discoveries. It is precisely this openness that makes abstract painting so special to me: a painting can mean something different for every person and reveal new facets again and again over time.

With every canvas I continue to develop my work — guided by my artistic roots, the valuable impulses of my teacher, and the desire to create something of my own.

The canvas is unprimed and is carefully rolled into a shipping tube for shipment. A certificate of authenticity is included in the delivery.
