About this artwork
Created with pastels on thick tinted paper.
I approached this work as a form of writing in motion, built up in successive layers. The lines unfold horizontally, intersect, overlap, and create a continuous visual rhythm. The gesture remains free yet controlled, alternating between broad strokes and tighter passages.
Anthropomorphic forms appear here and there, suggested rather than drawn, like fleeting presences caught in the flow of writing.… They are never isolated: they participate in the whole, blending into the general movement of the line.
Color is used to accentuate certain areas, support the dynamism of the gesture, and reinforce the flow of energy across the surface. Through this artistic expression, I seek a balance between spontaneity, repetition, and construction, allowing the work to develop naturally until it finds its own coherence.

𝗝𝗲𝗮𝗻-𝗝𝗮𝗰𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗲, a polymorphic and passionate self-taught artist, has been developing his artistic language for over forty years in total freedom, outside of academic frameworks.
After figurative beginnings influenced by Fauvism and Expressionism, his discovery of Chinese ink and Asian avant-garde calligraphy acted as a trigger that steered him towards a gestural, instinctive and emotional abstraction.
His work always originates from an inner state: nothing is programmed, everything arises from movement and the sincerity of the gesture.
In his works, strength and restraint intersect, matter flows freely, and energy seems to unfold. He seeks less to convey a message than to let the painting touch directly, without words, through the intensity of its presence.
