Concorde (2023) Painting by Gasediel

Gasediel is a contemporary French artist whose creative journey has been deeply influenced by her experiences in Brazil, where she lived for 8 years, and the United Kingdom, where she resided for 5 years. Immersed in the vibrant cultures of these diverse regions, Gasediel draws inspiration from themes associated with wild graffiti, particularly the pixação prevalent in Brazil, alongside the remnants of torn illegal posters and the natural wear and tear of time.

Her fascination with the raw beauty found in the imperfections of urban landscapes fuels her artistic vision. Gasediel sees a certain poetry in the forgotten walls of the city, where the remnants of life's struggles, imbalances, and breaks are laid bare. Through her work, she challenges viewers to reconsider their perceptions of these seemingly chaotic environments, inviting them to recognize the artistic and poetic richness embedded within the layers of urban decay.

Central to Gasediel's artistic practice is her use of rugged surfaces as canvases. By coating them with a thin layer of concrete, she recreates the roughness and porosity of damaged urban walls. These textural elements serve as a backdrop for her trompe l'oeil paintings, which evoke the unexpected and challenge the viewer's perception without the use of collage.

Gasediel's works have garnered significant attention from collectors across Europe, with her distinctive style and unique approach to urban art earning her recognition in the art world. In 2020, her talent was acknowledged with a shortlisting for the prestigious Ashurst Emerging Artist Prize, further solidifying her position as a rising star in contemporary art.
