Maes François

"Journey into another world", a world on the edge of time, neither figurative nor abstract, far from ephemeral fashions, a world organized around methodical constructions that are totally mastered, a world that is at once sparkling, ironic, swirling or intoxicating, but also dark, anguished and positively desperate.

A different vision, distorted, inappropriate, often relevant, sometimes tortured, nourished by a multitude of influences gleaned over time and travels to the four corners of the world.

Vision sometimes with an infinite palette of colors until the abuse, vision become with time more purified, graphic and sober in which the black and white preserve only the essential.

Everything can become "pleasure of the eye and the spirit", the paintings are often a "symbolic rebus" to be deciphered.
A "caption" would be imposed on each canvas to help "close the meaning" desired by the artist, master of the game.

Magic can be, disturbing undoubtedly, like this voyage in another world.
