In Philippe Decrauzat's work, intricate acrylic markings create complex patterns that appear to undulate and swell before our eyes. Reminiscent of the Op art and Minimalist movements of the 1960s and 1970s, Decrauzats geometric sculptures and monochromatic wall paintings demonstrate the beauty of these simplistic, organic forms. Interested in the direct relationship Op art provides to the viewers and the way it influences their minds, Decrauzat creates installations whose timelessness and universality encourage inimitable interactions between the viewer and the artwork.
