noce venitienne (2008) Painting by Didier Merceret

"Any work of art that transcends reality is an aspiration towards the sublime"

Possessing remarkable technical mastery, it is a world often filled with daydreams and sometimes even mysticism that the artist makes us discover in his paintings. We find an omnipresent symbolism at the very heart of his creations, thus forcing us to seek the message he wanted to convey to us.
Strength and gentleness come together within a very elaborate pictorial research and a palette of colors rich in nuances accompanies a very precise realization in the details. The light which emanates from his paintings is powerful and defines in a way deep convictions on the meaning of life and its human values.

“Light, whatever it may be, is the realization of our dreams…”

The work of #039;artist consists of a constant search for the expression of balance through the part taken by good and evil, hot and cold, curve and line, matter and immaterial, within an emotionally strong visual representation. His pictorial representations seem to come straight from another dimension.

For the artist, harmony lies in the persistent quest for universal balance. It propels us into a cosmogonic universe where everything is interconnected and ordered in space and time. Each thing, character, idea, event, belief, myth, shape and color, finds its precise place and fits together like the pieces of an infinite puzzle. The past and the future seem inseparable, linked by universal consciousness.

It is up to the viewer of the work to extract their own story, their own emotions, their own reality, and to interpret it according to their own existential experience.

In a style evocative of a subtle Manichaeism, his painting is part of a surrealist, dreamlike or fantastic current.

His work is produced with classic rigor and a very accomplished pictorial technique. It reflects sources of inspiration which find their full symbolic dimension in cosmology.
