About this artwork
Created on Arches 300g Cotton Paper.
Shipped in Tube.
Contemplation of classic portraiture, in a digital age of social media.
The posture and relative abstractions hand the interpretation and appropriation to the viewer.
The abstract elements around each being, a spontaneous abstraction relative to the central personnage created by the artist.
There is a certain balance between color, abstraction and… figuration that takes place.
To a place, space and feeling one identifies with. that one might find familiar.
.
The heart of man
is very much like the sea,
it has its storms,
it has its tides
and in its depths
it has its pearls too

« 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.
