algorithme méningé (2009) Painting by Grate

Grate, painter and photographer, evolves in the world of art with a unique approach and a captivating vision. Living and working in Carcassonne, France, Grate draws inspiration from both painting and photography, exploring the subtle connections between the two disciplines.

In his paintings, Grate creates vibrant compositions that exude an often beneficial energy. Each color used is perceived as a wave that carries within it a specific energy. Thanks to the complex interaction between the eye and the brain, the magic of color comes to life. Each work presented by Grate transmits an imperceptible energy, which acts positively on whoever contemplates it.

As a photographer, Grate focuses on the traces visible on the walls of his hometown and its surroundings. These traces often take the form of simple squares or rectangles, added as an "overlay" to hide other graffiti or earlier marks. Grate found in these simple forms, produced quickly and without any particular calculation by their authors, something aesthetically interesting. He then photographs them to use them as a starting point in the production of a series of paintings on canvas.

Grate's works, both in painting and photography, evoke a singular aesthetic and captivating artistic interest. His original approach and his ability to capture fleeting moments or traces of daily life add a fascinating depth and dimension to his work.
