About this artwork
I have some scientific background through my engineering studies. Very young I discovered the beauty of physics or maths equations and was fascinated by cosmology and the story of our universe. With age I have forgotten most of the meaning of these equations, but kept a deep sense of their calligraphic aesthetics. Also I have kept a great admiration for the great scientists - from Euclide, Pythagoras, Newton, Pascal, Tsiolkovsy, to Einstein, Schrödinger,…
Hawking and Penrose - who have discovered and explained the secrets of ou Universe. So this is one of my series of sketches and paintings I have made on 'Maths and Cosmology'. This one is made with markers on paper mounted on cardboard and framed in an American box.

Michel Testard
wandering painter of faraway worlds
Born in Tokyo and raised in Japan and Vietnam, I later lived in Africa, the UK and for twenty years in India. These places were not stops on a journey but temporary homelands, each leaving their own colour and rhythm within me. I paint what has marked me: a bend of the Ganges at dawn, the mineral light of Ladakh, Icelandic wilderness, the twilight of Rajasthani bazaars, the meditative atmosphere of Indian classical music. At times the real shifts into the imaginary — Goan rooms opening onto the sea, murmuring jungles, humorous portraits of musicians, rajas and yogis. My style is spontaneous and expressionist, guided by intuition and shaped by colour, emotion and memory. I paint to honour the faraway worlds that continue to inhabit me.
