Description of the Artwork “THE EYE OF CREATION”
For me, this painting symbolizes the conceptual approach of all creation. It of course refers to Marcel Duchamp's work concerning the conceptual approach to everything, and specifically in art. This painting therefore symbolizes the eye that creates, the eye that sees before it even begins to materialize. The eye that thinks the material, that shapes it before giving it life in the open life. It is a mixed technique work, with oil.
THE EYE OF CREATION
OTT Xavier, France
My paintings symbolize creative thinking patterns. I give visuals to listen to. "Who speaks, who hears, who listens?" I think that observing and giving these imaginary characters a regular voice will stimulate your creative thinking. It is your thoughts that these characters will express. That's why my characters are full of emotions. Often some even change their expressions according to the points of view from which they are viewed. They allow us to change our point of view and to make our reflections evolve. For a long time, I first painted the coming of information in an abstract way. An accident at the workshop cut me off from the use of my hand for two years. It was during my re-education that I decided to overcome the handicap and to arrived to paint my characters as I had always drawn them. Since then, I have been designing progressive installations-painting: compositions (see Instagram @ottxavier).
