Hello, I'm Olivier L.
Born in 1980 in Paris from Guadeloupe (FWI) native parents,Olivier Leogane is actually working and living in Montreal. Son of a visual artist father, no matter in which form, painting has always been driven by an invisible and unexplained force that imposed itself to him. To this day, he still can not explain where this relationship stems from but it is nevertheless part of his being, his very core. The abstract artworks of Olivier Leogane approaching the theme of the human being are true doors to an introspection; They plunge us into a world full of symbolism that inevitably challenges the viewer. Thus the pictorial universe is decomposed into several motifs, fragments that are repeated but retain a singularity that are their own. In addition to the circles, we find in the expressive mode of the artist, dividers of the circle, the polygons which also provide us with a key of interpretation as to the distribution of the energy, the colors and the forms of the work. The artist uses these polygons (triangle, tetragone, pentagon) in order to inscribe his geometry in a temporal space dimension. The layout of these polygons establishes trails in the texture and forms an axis of communication, a veritable language. The spectator bathes in a set that is energy, a cellular energy that comes to resonate with his innerself
