Lemonnier Frederic

Frédéric Pierre Lemonnier was born in 1973 in Soissons, France. Nourished by his travels, his love of cultures, and his studies in philosophy, psychoanalysis, art history, languages, and music, he is constantly searching for meaning and thus uses a wide range of media to illuminate his conception of the world. It is in the gesture of the brush on the canvas, in the brilliance of scarlet red… that meaning is revealed, according to him, in its intuitive form, like an immeasurable link to the essence of things. The artist neither intentionally represents nor reproduces; he signifies: “It is neither rational explanation nor outdated emotion that I seek, but the depth of twilight in order to catch the dawn!” Between a poetic semi-figurative style and an abstract narrative, his creations depict human betrayal (its barbarity) through the wandering of oblong forms in silent color. Thus, in his creation, light always emerges from darkness!
