LE NOUVEL ADAM 2nyss 2008 (2008) Painting by Denis Michel (2nyss)

#2nyss, an enigmatic pseudonym which perfectly suits this singular visual artist who escapes any attempt at classification. In turn painter, designer, sculptor, the artist claims a freedom of expression which cannot make us forget the depth of the subject. The real world of this abundant artist is above all that of symbolism. His perception of a fragmented world reveals to us the inner conflicts of Man in the face of the great questions raised by life and death, good, evil, the anxiety of a future in a world over which he has no control, the more often, not even the surface of things. Painter of the soul and of a society in decay or perpetual change, he draws his sources as much from ancient mythology and from a perfectly assumed Catalan culture, as from the current events of our consumerist society of which he highlights all the 'absurdity. Everything is linked in this work where the demand for detail, the rigor of the drawing and the composition serve to question the form and content of this artist who seems to think above all in volume. Whether it is a question of hijacking famous paintings through the play of a falsely naive, tangy and shadowless iconography, a fiction of very real news, or of fantastical characters torn apart by conflicts or stories, intimate and universal, figures monumental expressionists exploded into a mosaic made abstract by the play of setting and colored areas, his work is always located on the edge of flatness and volume. Oscar, a sculpted and painted bone, between the living and the dead, is in itself the symbol and the common thread of the coincidence of opposites that the artist explores. Not in turn but at the same time painter and sculptor, #2NYSS is a double-faceted artist like the Man he speaks to us about.
