Profile Information
- About Me:
- Originally from Aix en Provence, I arrived in London in 1988 to learn English and went on years later to do a degree in design and architecture. Two years after graduating, I decided to become exclusively an artist, following the steps of my father and established French Sculptor-painter: Yann Martin.
currently we also set up Miner Art Project, a fundraising org for the repair of art. Next auction is Venice, Maruno at the Glass school 27 November 2009
- About My Art:
- My work mostly goes by the colours and the flavours of Africa and the East. Trying to coerce the richness and the myth of these continents for me it is almost like travelling there and a homage to their culture.
Creating abstract worlds and going for the essential is what I like to achieve with each work. I am interested in textures, volume, recycled objects and how these materials can meet aesthetically on different supports.
