Stéphane Foucaud was born in Paris in 1971, yet it was the shores of Yam Island in New Caledonia that witnessed his upbringing. This land, a realm still ripe for demystification, became the crucible in which Foucaud Stéphane's artistic identity flourished. His work, a tapestry interwoven with myths and syncretisms, draws nourishment from this unique backdrop. Immersed in the tribal environment of his youth, Stéphane's journey became an indelible wellspring for his artistic expression. This imprinting from his early years culminated in a pictorial practice that found its genesis during his studies in the realm of plastic arts at the faculty of Strasbourg. On the canvas, scarifications and stark, minimalist forms emerge as if transmuted from the omnipresent sculptures that mark the landscapes of Kanak territory. This symbiotic relationship between his tribal upbringing and artistic exploration paints a vivid narrative through his work.

The distinct character of his expressiveness, often coined as "neo-tribal" by those who engage with his art, finds its natural inclination in the currents of Oceania and its diverse cultures. Rooted in the local amalgamation of influences, he derives the "signs" that permeate his style—a style that is both composite and all-embracing, akin to the rhizophagous nature of the surrounding environment. This tapestry allows the spontaneous gestures of his brushstroke to harmonize with the finesse of pen drawings, embodying a dynamic fusion of techniques and aesthetics.

Stéphane Foucaud's journey, enriched by the fusion of cultures and experiences, unfolds as a visual symphony resonating with the essence of Oceania. From the tribal echoes of his upbringing to the nuanced strokes of his artistic expression, his canvas becomes a testament to the intricate threads that bind heritage and creativity, resonating with audiences near and far.
