These dots represent the myriad thoughts, emotions, and experiences of the people who inhabit the city. While the physical environment may seem drab and monotonous, the minds of the individuals who reside there are anything but dull. Each dot symbolizes a burst of creativity, passion, and diversity that permeates through the urban landscape.
The title, "Urban Colors," suggests a juxtaposition between the grayscale facade of the city and the inner worlds of its inhabitants. It speaks to the idea that despite the external constraints and uniformity imposed by urban living, the human spirit remains colorful and dynamic.
Overall, "Urban Colors" serves as a reminder of the richness and complexity of urban life, inviting viewers to reflect on the kaleidoscope of experiences that define our existence in the modern world.

Constantin Roucault, a contemporary Swiss artist, draws inspiration from the cubist representation of urban and industrial subjects found in the works of American painters Charles Sheeler, Charles Demuth, and, to some extent, Edward Hopper. This early influence propelled him towards embracing the artistic style.
The city and nature, in their myriad forms, have remained enduring sources of inspiration for Constantin throughout his artistic journey. His artworks navigate the intersection of figurative and graphic styles, oscillating between abstraction and realism.
Central to his creative process is the use of oil paint, a fundamental medium that brings his visions to life. In certain instances, Constantin incorporates diverse media and techniques, including acrylic, ink, charcoal, collage, and screen printing, to enhance the expressive depth of his creations. This versatile approach allows him to explore and push the boundaries of artistic representation, creating a body of work that resonates with both abstraction and the tangible reality of the subjects he portrays.
