Olivier is a self-taught artist born in 1970; he is French of Korean descent.
He lives and works in France in the Rhône-Alpes region. Olivier VINCENT possesses a unique talent: a great sensitivity combined with a profound sense of humor.
Olivier knows how to infuse his creations with a sense of originality that stems from his technical mastery, which makes him a talented artist.
In 2006, Olivier began creating his “Shadows” series on large aluminum panels.
The shadows intertwine, merge, and play with the viewer. The vivid colors and the effects of depth and texture bring to life a joyful dance of fleeting forms. Drawn in and captivated, the eye searches for a point of reference, a direction within this colorful fantasia.
A respite for the soul, an awakening of the senses—each of Olivier’s works appeals to the sensitivity and sensuality within each of us.
Whether artist or magician, he brings to the surface emotions deeply buried in our subconscious—that quest for happiness, which we sometimes dismiss as childish in our dehumanized world.
His shadows are anonymous, brotherly beings, united for the duration of a game.
