Doval
DOVAL (BENAVENT Emilio) is an artist of Iberian-Swiss culture born in 1968 in a Spanish village called Alcazar de San Juan, in the heart of La Mancha and domiciled in Switzerland since the age of 6, in Eysins in the canton of Vaud.
As a child, he honored his origins by painting Don Quixote on jars during these summer holidays, according to local tradition. At the age of 12, he received his first easel from his mother who always praised and encouraged his talent. Since then, Doval has never stopped responding to this vital need to paint.
A constant and overflowing creativity enhanced by a fiery energy inhabits the artist and his works through which we feels both a solid structure and the expression of a limitless universe.
Doval can sit for hours, weeks, even months in front of a blank canvas: He waits patiently, see its subject appear. Like his personality, Doval's painting reveals raw character, sometimes damaged and the elegance of a kind of truth.
Wild, structured and indomitable, 3 words which define as much the artist Doval as his pictorial work.
