About this artwork
This series is the result of the meeting between Alberto surf shaper at RT Surfboards and Peïo visual artist. Their common goal is to create unique and original art objects for collectors sensitive to Surf culture. Alberto is one of the best surfboard shapers in Europe and Peïo has had the opportunity to paint the surfboards of the best surfers in the world. From this meeting was born the surfline art project, a project where talents come together…
to create unique art objects. Peïo painted directly on the foam, a sort of life-size watercolor paper allowing fine work with acrylic inks and Alberto created a perfect layering polished to infinity on top to give depth to each of these works of art.

« Painting is a universal language, a language that gives meaning and translates what our eyes can see but also what they can only imagine. »
French sculptor and painter Peïo returned to painting after the death of his father, who was a watercolorist. A former sailor, Peïo is inspired by the world of islands and tropics. Using primarily oil paints, Peïo creates portraits through which he hopes to make visible the link between subjects' spirits and faces. Peïo's works are a fusion of the figurative and the abstract, and show immaculate portraits revealed behind a foreground of vivid shapes and colors.
