Bruno Dumont
"People don't care much about images or how they're made. For my part, I spend most of my time creating them. They can be subversive, I know that. However, I don't expect all this to be understood immediately. David Hockney .
At 43, I'm beginning to believe that one can be born a 'painter' and understand my visions of the world, my obsessions, my motivations, my relentlessness, my vital need to always: to paint.
A civil servant by default for years, my time freed up to paint, it took me 15 years to consider my work "exhibitable", out of respect for myself, for the way people look at me, for painting.
First fascinated by watercolor, I worked hard for years to develop this technique to see today that watercolor is finally recognized as a major art and no longer limited to sketches, transparent washes, figurative landscapes. With a mastered technique, a free gesture; water, pigments, light, everything on paper becomes textures, materials, something that has weight. The feeling, the impression is unique because it comes from water.
I also work with acrylic, a "DIY" technique for me, experimental, innovative contrast games.
My painting is often called lyrical (emotion in enthusiasm, passion, exaltation, spontaneity, energy readable by free gestures).
For me everything must be felt.
A great utopian, I have been a professional since 2007 and I wanted to democratize my work by opening a Workshop Gallery "of pigment in life" 9 avenue de la mer 14150 Ouistreham

To my credit, around twenty personal and collective exhibitions in 2006/2007 as far as Spain (Andalusia).

biographie bruno dumont
"Les gens ne s'intéressent pas beaucoup aux images ou à la façon dont elles sont réalisées .Pour ma part,c'est à leur création que je consacre le plus claire de mon temps .Elles peuvent être subversives,j'en suis conscient.Quoi qu'il en soit,je ne m'attends pas à ce que tout cela soit compris immédiatement . David Hockney .
A 43ans,je commence à croire que l'on peut naitre "peintre" et y comprendre mes visions du monde,mes obsessions,mes motivations,mes acharnements,mon besoin vital de toujours : peindre .
Fonctionnaire par défaut pendant des années, mon temps libêré à peindre, il m'a fallut 15années pour considérer mon travail "exposable", par respect pour moi,pour le regard sur moi, pour la peinture .
D'abord fasciné par l'aquarelle,je me suis acharné des années à développer cette technique pour constater aujourd'hui que l' aquarelle est enfin reconnue comme art majeur et non plus limitée à des pochades,des lavis transparents,des paysages figuratifs .Avec une technique mâitrisée,une gestuelle libêrée;l'eau,les pigments,la lumière,le tout sur papier devient textures,matières,quelque chose qui a du poids .Le ressenti,l' impression est unique car issu de l'eau .
Je travaille également l'acrylique,technique "bricolage" pour moi,expérimentale,jeux de contrastes novateurs .
On dit souvent ma peinture lyrique (emotion dans l'enthousiasme, passion, exaltation, spontanéité, énergie lisible par une gestuelle libre ).
Pour moi tout doit être ressenti .
Grand utopique,je suis professionnel depuis 2007 et j'ai voulu démocratiser mon travail en ouvrant un Atelier Galerie "du pigment dans la vie" 9 avenue de la mer 14150 Ouistreham
tél :06 24 26 81 38
A mon actif une vingtaine d'expositions personnelles et collectives en 2006/2007 jusqu'en Espagne (Andalousie) .

Cette œuvre s'élance dans la regard , auréolée d'une vibration si efficace qu'elle provoque un appel une résonance capable de transgresser l'immobilité finale . J'aime beaucoup !
