To paint is to enter the canvas with strength and desire. Everything is extinguished around the artist. Only his hand, his soul and the support remain in communion.

From 1995 onwards, Bruno began painting alongside his work in the press, where he was involved in photo reporting. These journeys nourish his memory: suffering, loneliness, dismay, revolt, political, artistic and NGO encounters. In 2009, an essential turning point: Bruno quit his job to devote himself entirely to his passion. His encounters with Henry Gault (drawing), Miro (impressionism and gesture), and Elisabeth Frering (free expression of shapes and colors) at the Ecole Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg were of the utmost importance.

All of these lessons gave rise to a pictorial tendency, bordering on abstract and figurative: a modern impressionism. Bruno paints directly on the canvas without preliminary drawing or any photographs or other media. Memory, imagination and the soul are the engines of his creativity. This way of working imbues his paintings with authenticity sensitivity and strength. Men, nature, sky and water, everything is a source of fascination. The coasts of France, Balkan conflicts and African men are all elements that provide their colour and daily life to be transposed on canvas. Bruno paints for pleasure and to convey to the viewer the joy experienced in art.
