Dans cette nature morte, j'ai choisi des objets simples : un arrosoir en métal et un chapeau noir, que j'ai assemblés et positionnés dans un contexte désertique créant une scène intrigante. L'arrosoir est généralement un symbole de vie et de croissance, représentant l'eau, essentielle à toute forme de vie. Dans ce contexte désertique, sa présence contraste fortement et volontairement avec l'aridité du paysage. Le chapeau, traditionnellement symbole de statut, que j'ai placé ouvert vers le ciel, est abandonné dans le désert, déconnecté de toute fonction sociale. Le décor désertique est créé pour accentuer l'idée de stérilité et d'abandon. Les silhouettes floues et sombres à l'arrière plan sont comme des souvenirs ou des fantômes du passé, représentant des spectres de l'humanité, rappelant une présence humaine qui n'est plus ou qui est seulement une ombre de ce qu'elle était.
J'aime jouer avec les concepts de fonction, de temps et de lieu. En plaçant des objets fonctionnels dans un environnement où ils n'ont plus de sens apparent, je m'interroge sur notre relation aux objets et à leur utilité. Dans cette nature mort, j'invite le spectateur à réfléchir sur la vanité humaine, la futilité des efforts humains face à des forces plus grandes, comme la nature, le temps et la mortalité.

Jean-Paul Becker is a contemporary French artist deeply rooted in an artistic legacy, being the son and grandson of directors. His early exposure to photography, cinema, and advertising shaped his eclectic artistic journey, ultimately leading him to discover painting as his most personal mode of expression. Influenced by surrealism, Becker creates immersive worlds where humor, mischief, and sensitivity intertwine, revealing the paradoxes of society.

His creative process reflects a unique vision of the world, akin to the way he imagined stories and video clips before fully understanding the lyrics of the songs he listened to. This imaginative approach continues as he navigates the complexities of life, painting his interpretations of its inconsistencies and contradictions. Becker is particularly attuned to humanity's behavior toward the planet and our voracity, with his artwork serving as a projection of his emotional responses to these observations.

His paintings range from humorous to darker themes, but he consistently infuses a sense of humor into his work. Inspiration strikes him from various sources—a sound, a conversation, nature, or even a scent—igniting his creativity. Before beginning a piece, Becker sketches while visualizing colors, exclusively using the three primary hues—yellow, blue, and red—mixing them to achieve the desired shades.

Becker believes in leaving space for the viewer's imagination, appreciating that interpretations of his work may differ from his own. This diversity of perception is where the true sharing of art begins. Through painting, he expresses what he often finds difficult to articulate in words, inviting others to engage with his artistic vision.
