Renaud Gilles

Originally from Saint Quentin, France, Renaud Gilles is a self-taught artist with a passion for dance and performance.

His painting is expressive. It engages the body, the space, involving movement, the relationship to the void.

The artist works on the raw linen canvas that he sometimes leaves free to keep a freedom in the movement. The canvas is mixed with this painting evoking the gestural and emotional intensity of American expressionism.

The series of prints is more framed because it is a precise element that the artist invites us to look at, to feel.

His progressive painting takes us elsewhere and invites us to take a deep breath.
