    Wilfrid Moizan

    Wilfrid Moizan’s works are imbued with a melancholic sensitivity. His works explore the relationship between space and its inhabitants. These inhabitants could be living entities like human beings or inanimate objects like chairs and houses. The dynamics of interconnectedness between the subject and the space it inhabits find their place in serenity and muted tones. Edging on surreal essence,  this sort of arrangement radically redefines the concept of space and seemingly inconsequential realms like an outdoor ground or the rain-soaked street.

    Born 1969 in Lannion (Cotes d’Armor) into a family of artists, Moizan completed his art education at the School of Fine Art and Art History in Rennes. After his training, Moizan worked as an art teacher in a number of schools in Normandy. In 2006, he shifted to St Martin - French West Indies. Currently, Wilfrid lives and works in Saint-Martin

    Moizan’s art charts unique territory that few artists have traversed. The symbiotic relationship between a human figure or object and its immediate setting ponder over the symbolic meanings of being and belonging. The space is incomplete without the subject who inhabits it. And the subject is incomplete without that space! A hint of the Realism movement spurs in his expression, wherein the subjects are common and pose in an unconventional method. Apart from the idea of form and context, the painterly palette tends to render a minimal perspective.

    Meandering on a fragile and slippery terrain, we are rather dependent on the context that surrounds us. Questions related to memory, time and the precarious nature of existence also crop up as one looks at Moizan’s paintings. Moizan has a number of solo and group exhibitions to his credit.
