About this artwork
Works on animal skin
Materials used: the traditional technique on calfskin, with natural pigments, Indian ink etc ...
The skin is an organic matter, it comes from a life. I shape it through artistic techniques that give it a second life. The time then acts gradually on its original texture. In addition, each piece of skin is unique, which makes the treatment much more perilous but in return gives the creations a great singularity and the impossibility… of copying the works.
These traditional family techniques were transmitted to me by my father, Ma Fuliang, an artist who has been living in Paris for almost 30 years.

« For me, the artist is a transmitter of perceptions. They should be able to accelerate heartbeats, soothe the spectator and create new sensations. »
Maxence Ma is a Shanghai-born, Paris-based painter who artistically explores both cities in continuous observation of and inquiry into various aspects of culture, architecture, change and truth. A self-taught artist largely formed by his father - a fellow painter with 30 years of experience - he primarily works within his family's traditional technique of utilizing animal skin as a surface. Ma's pieces have been exhibited throughout China and France.
