Laurent Chimento
Laurent Chimento is a professional painter born in 1974 in Manosque in the Alpes de Haute Provence.
A short initiation to painting course in the Vaucluse introduced him to this universe which he was enthusiastic about exploring.
He was then seventeen years old.
Self-taught, he studies bodies, volumes, draws in charcoal, contemplates the works of the great masters of painting
He sketches to improve his line, experiments with multiple techniques, gouache, watercolor, acrylic oil etc.
The pictorial universe of the artist seizes us when beyond the colors, he plays with the lines, the curves, the depths, bringing an original relief in the work as if he were trying to solve a mystery or to stop time. .
Above all, it is pictoriality that obsesses him. "It's not the object that counts, it's its pictoriality because it's the expression of what lives in us."
The notion of play is often present in the work of Laurent Chimento, often counterbalanced by the tropism of a seriousness that takes shape in the materiality of the work.
From all of his contemporary works, singled out by a paradoxical eclecticism, springs a charm, a poetry, a daydream, this is what the artist Laurent Chimento represents.
