Painting has become an obsession for me. Representing sultry, graceful or flayed souls, overwhelming emotions that inhabit us all, one day or another.
Decorator trained at the Opera of Bordeaux and painter, Fabien is initiated to the techniques of the audiovisual, more particularly to photography, before turning later to an apprenticeship of plastic arts. Trained in the mastery of pictorial skills from classical painting to trompe-l'oeil, his art reveals itself in the execution of an original and dreamlike contemporary figurative painting. Fragments of individuals impregnated with a timeless and fantastic poetry, Fabien's works plunge us into a contemplation "in mirror". Thus, of the two, who stares at the other?
Even though Fabien works from mixed techniques affixed on canvas, he prefers oil painting, which he likes to resort to in order to perfect the finish of all of his works. The artist likes painting closed faces, whose more or less discernible physical human characteristics are reminiscent of inspired forms of African masks or other features taken from theatrical or military history. Always represented full-face, these characters of an unknown age but with a sexual physiognomy seem to have come straight from a legendary tale, whose story could be revealed by deciphering the "scars" of colours and materials, and whose faces are partially or even entirely covered. The oil used by the artist as a final medium to complete the work accentuates this almost sacred, precious feeling, which seems to emerge from the represented subject.
