Jean-Marc Larhantec develops a painting constructed in resonance with sound.
Each work is born from an immersion in an album, whose rhythm, tensions and silences it transposes into matter.
His practice is rooted in physical and structured abstraction. The surface is worked in depth, through layers, loading and unloading, until unstable force fields are created, between equilibrium and rupture.
Painting is not an image: it is a space of tension.
The gesture engages the body as much as listening. It is not about illustrating the music, but about prolonging its effects, capturing an intensity and fixing it in matter.
His works are thus constructed in a constant oscillation between control and letting go, structure and accident, density and breath.
