- Sien-Sébastien Presentation and Approach creative
Originally the world, man was born of his own creation, the creator knocked away his tribe. The first occupations of our ancestors are still our strongest influences, they define us, guide us and dominate us. Instinctive knowledge is a sincere will that can not be refuted ...
Being a painter is not a profession but a state. The creative act takes shape when he destroyed himself. From birth to death, through a vicious and carnal act, this act, as treacherous as it is, derives its power to the depths of ourselves, where there is only the absolute void, where there will never be any answer ...
Born under the star of drunkenness and carrying in my genes and know the violence of my ancestors, destruction and war games are the main activities of my childhood. Seeking a pickaxe and spade, inside my mind, instinctive responses to "Who am I? . The structure of the destructive act of war and give birth in my way of thinking, fixed configurations imaginary complex projects, pushing me to get lost in an unknown universe, both dark and bright. In this abstract immensity grows another world, a world that will become a sanctuary for my mind ...
Already very young, solitude gives me a feeling of pleasure, I do so my first experience of the nightlife. The moments of solitude and lunar impress me fascinate me. In silence and darkness, I imagine my brain as if it were a world map spread out and printed on the surface of the void. Given this vision, I feel like I have access to blueprints of all my thoughts and my knowledge. The power of my ecstasy and my height gives me gliding the illusion that I can modify this information according to my will. A sense of power seeping through my whole being and fear that once inside me turn by way of courage. From the top of my vision, I see the singularity of my fate on the horizon.
I'm free, I daydream, I'm getting old. Experience
enter me. Curious, I am increasingly attracted to objects that I like without logical reason, places where there is nothing to do, and I find myself to meet people with whom I have no affinity. I'm always looking for places filled with thousands of objects: barns, sheds, garages, workshops, flea markets, etc.. I'm looking for some complex objects that I disassembled or that I destroy as appropriate, in order to see inside. I began collecting all sorts of small objects with no apparent value. That these objects are found or are prey to a strange attraction, I recovered from disparate manner without knowing at first what I will do. I pick up pieces of wood, metal, glass, corks, bits of string, etc.. I classify these small objects form, genre or color and I kept in small boxes that I hide like a precious treasure.
So I learn to prefer certain materials to others. I understand the touch, the nature and necessity. The shapes, masses and the colors are becoming more important in the space around me. Instinctively, I have things to create charts that have the effect of get initiated into the mysteries of the basic power of the composition, shape and color. I learned how things are built, how they destroy themselves and what their strengths are visual only, but especially against each other. My senses are sharpened ... My understanding not only applies to objects, but also my social context, which makes me live, this period many disappointments. I see things seriously, I do not play, but I invent games with which I do not play, some aspects of life seem dull and dreary, I turn, I am aging prematurely and I isolate myself. I now realize
death ... "The second condition is a gateway to infinity. "Acquiring
increasingly farm mental rigidity, the need for me to distraction takes to turn me from behind against an abstract universe and voluptuous. From strict intellectual studies in alcoholism, my creative energy pent since my birth began to flow violently. The school, sports and social activities became secondary to the art side. I make my first installations, interior and exterior, I sculpt and I assemble all sorts of miscellaneous objects. I discovered photography and video, I learn to land, pottery and ceramics ... At this point in my life I began to develop an addiction with pencils. Whenever the outside world seems superficial, every second of freedom, I draw, pastel, charcoal, graphite, ink and other. My drawings are piling up huge mounds and form, my environment is a graveyard pile of papers, bottles and bits of pencils worn. The passion soon led me to ink with watercolor, gouache and acrylic, lead me then to the oil and industrial paints ... I realize that even if the mediums are different from one to another, they all boil down to the same thing, they are only tools creation. Out of curiosity, I try to academic studies, but I find that my learning is much faster and more efficient in my studio and the library as an educational institution. So I make my own studies on the subject, technique, history and different artistic movements. I study more particularly cubism and surrealism that I consider the only real recent innovations in painting. In all my research, the composition of the image is the topic that fascinates me most. Constructivism, architecture and structure as the freeze line has always been an interest in my mind. On these issues, I keep all possible scores in order to one day write a treatise on orchestration pictorial composition and visual harmony.
"The science of painting lies in the mind that conceives it, whence then comes the performance much more noble than that theory or science. ¹

Turning a production very careful in the hypergraph, the oil painting and ink drawings are my main fields of action. From realism to abstraction almost complete, my work is a psychic representation of a being, a union or relationship between several elements of importance, my paintings may look like an accumulation of organic masses very dark, a main subject whatever, very clear, bright lines or identified in a harmonious blend of both styles . The term feminine curves and soft and tender are almost always present in my work. My subjects are varied, to me, the important thing is the manner with which it deals with energy, using the surrounding forces to create something new, something unique, something that can become a sacred object. The subject, style or technique used do not matter. For example, some people I served and still serves me all sorts of studies, landscapes, portraits, flower pots and still lifes, but these are primary subjects for me to return to the single source of creation, to the sweet sensation of a female presence unobtrusive and soothing.
My works, born of dreams, are often created without preliminary drawing or sketch, sketch or drawing. For some other (rarer and more elaborate) rigid compositions and several drawings were made before, during and after the creation of the work. I do not trace in pencil on a canvas, everything is done directly by brush. My strong point is the line art. The complete and detailed drawings are almost nonexistent in my work, they are for the most part, that plots of fine lines without gradation or shading. I use the drawing part, to simplify, to take notes, to work part of a work, or composition.
My two main projects, inks and oils, are the beginning and end of a production cycle that is repeated infinitely. In constant rotation and extension, this movement is the concrete representation of a cycle that includes several other psychic projects including animation, film, audiovisual performance and many others ... As time progresses, each of my projects are becoming more complex, the more obvious link between them is strong and harmony.
Production Years piled upon each other and I developed a conscience that is refined. Of a long decline, periods of artistic Sabbath have improved my technique and knowledge of my work. I discovered that, contrary to what I thought was younger, my produce is growing awareness, and meditation is grow my technical skills. These periods allowed me to know the true nature of my need creative. The painting is no longer a mercantile production but a tool to raise my soul. Independent, autonomous, manic, perverse and aggressive, I am a lonely and sometimes antisocial, by accelerating internal rhythm, and the nightlife of my comfort intoxicating. My lifestyle does not coincide with almost anyone. Hating the machine, both material and human, my being extremist keeps me away from the contemporary arts, which does not inspire great passion. I am a creator, I'm not an artist, I'd rather build a house than to paint insignificant. My paintings are built long term, for some, more than 10 years were needed to achieve them and many are still unfinished. When I finish a work, there is nothing wrong with ... My shows are few and my staff are carefully chosen. I refused several invitations, several contracts. Part of my work remains hidden. About my work and my research bored, seems pointless ... I believe in the value of the personal interpretation of the viewer. I consider that the very purpose of an artistic production is, in fact, knowledge of the being, nature and life, increased general knowledge, creative abilities and intensification of the spirit. Painting is one of the only ways to mark the memory of man, so that information is transmitted, the beginning of time until our offspring. The creative act, as treacherous as it is, derives its power to the depths of ourselves, this sacred act for us creators deserve to devote our lives to him, but mostly for the good of humanity ...
I am one of those "who believe that painting is only speculative proper interpreter of the cosmos that surrounds us. ¹
