About this artwork
BODY AND SOUL
The visualization of feeling and emotion is a challenge to represent.
How does one envision and create a work around complex emotion.
Grief, loss, love, melancholy, existence ...
This representation of deep inner thought and feeling, is what one can only try to express.
The body and soul, in image, both visible. Identifiable & inseparable.
Enhancing that which one can feel rather than one can think.
I have tried to… represent the journey of emancipation, struggle and surrender that one can encounter when going through the grievance process. From a melancholic state, to a state of surrender and release.
The emotional journey of the soul and their encounters with the reality of the world.

« My work captures abstraction, surrealism and the unpredictable. I trace the paths taken by my subjects throughout the creative process. Each work is unique. Each work, a new destination. »
Peter Pitout is an artist based in France, whose work has been exhibited nationally and internationally.
Drawing from his childhood in Durban, South Africa and a background in industrial art and design, he creates paintings that balance structured forms with surrealist gestures.
His multidisciplinary practice spans oil painting, embroidery, and conceptual research, often exploring themes of light, vibration, and transformation. Pitout has participated in several art residencies in France and abroad, using these immersive experiences to deepen his artistic inquiry and expand his visual language.
For him, the creative process is a return to inner roots—a space for reflection, reconnection, and the evolution of artistic consciousness.
