About this artwork
However this visual stuck with me for some time and whilst certain ideas or visual concept ideas come and go, others stick around.
You have to do it running
But you do everything that they ask you to
'Cause you don't mind seeing yourself in a picture
As long as you look faraway, as long as you look removed
Showered and blue-blazered, fill… yourself with quarters
Showered and blue-blazered, fill yourself with quarters
You get mistaken for strangers by your own friends
When you pass them at night
Under the silvery, silvery Citibank lights
Arm in arm in arm and eyes and eyes, glazing under
Oh, you wouldn't want an angel watching over you
Surprise, surprise, they wouldn't wanna watch
Another un-innocent, elegant fall
Into the un-magnificent lives of adults
Reminders of my time in London and watching city workers after work.

« 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. »
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.
