ROM[S]ANTIQUE (2023) Painting by Olivier Mangin

Mangin is a painter and photographer whose creative process is nourished by all techniques. He goes from drawing to painting with a brush and then with an aerosol can without any link being woven between his various explorations. He lives his art without thinking of building a career or a particular work. He does what comes into his head, according to his desires, creating unique and original works.

Today, Mangin turns to the art of photography, capturing the moment while trying to compose with this hint of the unknown. Even when he shoots scenes, he likes to be surprised by the unexpected, the little extra that will become essential. It is a continuity in his artistic research and what will allow him to best express what he wishes to share.

Born in 1970, Mangin lives and works in Marseille, where he draws his inspiration from the vibrant and dynamic atmosphere of the city. His works are marked by a unique and original style, which combines different techniques and approaches to create visually captivating compositions.

Mangin is an artist who constantly reinvents himself and explores new artistic horizons. His curiosity and his thirst for discovery led him to cross many fields of art, from painting to photography.
