Geida - A dive into autonomy

A woman, a springboard, a man hidden in his shadow. GEIDA here evokes the dive toward autonomy, freedom, this desire to take flight and take the big leap into the bath, to fly with one's own wings, to make one's own decisions. Despite all our fears, our worries, our educations, values, customs, at first glance, but also our needs for safety, help, reassurance, support, all of which are represented here by the buoy, the parachute, the fins—so many tools intended to ensure the necessary help in difficulty and the strength to take the plunge. Is the man crouching in the shadow here for control, to support, reassure, encourage… an allegory of the dive into life.

GEIDA is a French artist, from the south of France, born in 1982, on the shores of the Côte d’Azur.

Inspired by classical and modern painting, he navigates between contemporary works and street art. His creations incorporate emblematic elements of classic and pop culture. His works are characterized by the reinterpretation of major painters, warm colors, expressive and mesmerizing compositions.

GEIDA explores different forms of universes and productions. Some of his works are reproduced in small series on stretched canvases, thus creating limited editions accessible to a wider audience.
The artist’s style reflects a combination of classical art and new techniques. In order to captivate attention, provoke thought, and elevate interiors.

The artist uses different techniques and merges them to create bold and impactful works; from an original pencil drawing, through the use of drawing software such as Procreate, and subtle touches of AI, and specific prompts; a use of mixed media to the benefit of creation.
