Franck Oscamou

Franck Oscamou trained at the Beaux-Arts of Aix en Provence. He then explores abstract painting and large format. He discovers the emotional load of painting without identification, the tension of colors and gesture, the relationship of the body and space. Abstraction seems to him to be the most free mode of expression, that which is determined without constraints, the only limit being the physical framework of the support. In the end, he understands that even if abstract art is not figurative, he represents something, a trace charged with his gestures and his breathing. Consequently, it seems to him essential to explore the figuration. Back in his native Pyrenees, his field of research is therefore no longer the representation of the only emotion but also what is played in figurative painting. At this moment the Questions related to the representation of things no longer leave him: how to question? How to find an echo in his contemporaries at a time when the body is overexposed? How to associate painted trace and drawing?
