Alain Mandon
Alain Mandon is a contemporary French painter and sculptor. His artistic endeavors are a dynamic exploration of color, contrast, 3D effects, and volumes, all brought to life through unconventional materials like resin, natural sand, and pewter. Mandon skillfully combines elements of movement, matte, and gloss in his pursuit of visual expression.
During a vacation in Royan, inspiration struck as Mandon envisioned diverting resin, typically used for surfboards, to capture the vibrancy of pigments on his canvases. The resulting fluidity, set in stark contrast against black natural sand, creates a captivating effect reminiscent of a molten lava flow, frozen in time.
Mandon's sculptures elevate the female form, imbuing it with a timeless quality through the application of molten alloys. The artist skillfully projects these alloys to enhance the curves and lines of a woman's breast, imparting an ethereal lightness and grace. The deliberate cutting and casting techniques employed by Mandon bestow an antique appearance upon his sculptures, evoking the patina of time while preserving their inherent beauty.
