RAPHAËL MONNET - RED RAINS - XXL

Unique and Original Work Painted by Hand by Raphaël Monnet

Raphaël Monnet develops contemporary abstract painting in which color becomes material, rhythm, and movement.

He approaches the canvas as an space of experimentation. The painting is projected, accumulated, and confronted with opposing colors. The impacts cross paths, some areas densify while others allow the background to breathe.

His process does not rely on a pre-prepared image, but on a progressive construction. Each intervention leads to the next until an equilibrium appears between apparent disorder and pictorial organization.

Based in the Léo Varek studio in France, Raphaël Monnet continues his research around the projection and superposition of colors. His works possess an immediate presence at a distance and reveal, when approached, a multitude of details, nuances, and unexpected encounters between pigments.

Each canvas results from a unique process. The trajectory of the projections, the distribution of material, and the interactions between colors can never be reproduced exactly the same.

Format and presentation

The indicated dimensions correspond to the total size of the canvas. A painted peripheral section is intended to be folded over the sides of the frame, without encroaching on the main composition.

Some images show the work in its setting to facilitate projection into an interior. They are created using the ArtStage staging software which performs AI mockups. Proportions may slightly vary depending on the staging. Please refer to the dimensions indicated in the description to know the actual size of the work.

The edges are partially painted and allow for a clean finish after mounting.

Shipping

The work is shipped rolled in a rigid protective packaging, without stretcher or frame.

Light creases may appear on receipt. This is perfectly normal for a rolled canvas. These marks naturally disappear when the canvas is stretched.

For optimal results, it is recommended to have the canvas mounted on a frame by a local framer.

Shipments are carried out by express carrier — DHL, FedEx, or equivalent — with careful tracking until delivery.

Some destinations may incur additional shipping charges beyond my control. In that case, the buyer will be informed before shipping in order to adjust the fees if necessary. Without approval of these fees, the shipment cannot be made.
