Born in 1986, Paul Sibuet is a French visual artist. Trained in Design and Art. His work has been distinguished in numerous competitions, in Tokyo and Paris. He soon broke free from the techniques he had been taught by exploring his own perceptions of the objects and volumes, thus creating his signature.Sibuet structures forms, colours and materials. He freezes the movement in abundant lines. An unstructured order. He uses the impertinence of his conception of the vice and of the innocence in sensible light and shadow effects.
In his “installations”, monochrome and representational productions, the artist plays with physical constraints to bring spaces to life. They highlight a reflection on past and future codes. Gold leaf, marble in “trompe-l’oeil”, matte white are all materials which make the monumental and the somptuous resonate, mocking the immaterial, as they are its colours, and the sacred, the divine, the infigurable, the infinity resounds in them. While liberating from the diktats and offending sometimes the academicism, the artist offers us pieces freed from the notion of space, flowing out the artwork for calling out to us. In the “Snapshot” series, the artwork mocks the technique, being the fruit of a work on the distortion of the stretched canvases.
Pushing even further the paradoxes in the “Breaking the glass” series, the artist confronts the childhood imaginary with the adult imprudence. He offers us a dreamlike reality with a kind of pulsions more or less inappropriate. A mass of life that he breathes by overdose to us.
Through his productions, the artist gives us the feeling of a deep freedom, almost anonymous, in which each can find itself or get lost… He reveals us a universe which is close to us, always on the edge of the reality and the unknown.
Paul Sibuet is exhibited world wide and is in large important collections.
