Julien Pelloux is a painter, graduated from the Beaux-Arts de Paris and also trained in Canada, nourishing his practice with conceptual abstraction and contemporary painting. He uses acrylic, moving from a geometric rigor achieved with masking tape to a more gestural, embodied and intuitive painting, worked directly with the brush in vibrant layers. His works convey a poetic tension between structure and spontaneity, inviting us to feel a vital breath, a subtle balance between control and freedom, magnified by the inspiring echo of Japanese culture and its inhabited silences.
