"Emotions and senses generate the shape of a map but it's more than a map."

Philippe Halaburda is a contemporary French artist based in the USA. Philippe's artistic roots trace back to his education in graphic arts at the Superior School of Art EDTA Sonas in Paris. Following his formal studies, he made a deliberate choice to embark on a journey of discovery across Europe, immersing himself in the rich tapestry of artistic styles and movements that the continent had to offer.

What distinguishes Philippe's art is his unique ability to encode entire urban and natural landscapes into his visual language. His work revolves around the concept of psychogeography mapping - a captivating invitation for viewers to explore the depths of their subconscious feelings, dreams, and experiences tied to specific locations. Through his art, he delves into the intricate relationship between individuals and their surroundings, unraveling the collective memories that bind them.

In the realm of artistic comparison, Philippe Halaburda's work has drawn parallels to the Russian avant-garde artist Kazimir Malevich, renowned for his contributions to Constructivism and Suprematism. Within the fundamental elements of these artistic movements, Philippe's creations emanate an extraordinary dynamism and assertive presence. His artwork becomes a narrative, an exploration of the hidden interactions between humanity and its environment.

Philippe's artistic toolbox is as diverse as his subject matter. He seamlessly transitions between various mediums, including canvas, photography, digital media, and, more recently, plexiglass. His techniques are equally versatile, as he abandons traditional paintbrushes in favor of spatulas and color tapes. This adaptability allows him to breathe life into his unique vision of 'geographic abstraction.'

The beauty of Philippe's work lies in its poetic and spontaneous expression—a transformation of landscapes into a modern visual code that he aptly dubs 'geographic abstraction.' It is a language that transcends traditional boundaries and speaks to the soul of both the artist and the viewer.

Philippe Halaburda's artistic journey has not been confined to Europe. His work has been exhibited throughout the continent, and in 2013, he marked a significant milestone with his first solo representation at the Peyton Wright Gallery in the United States. Since then, his art has found its place in various American and French galleries, continuing to captivate audiences with its thought-provoking exploration of the intricate bonds between humanity and the landscapes that shape our lives.
