In 'Transiency', Constantin Roucault masterfully employs abstract expression to delve into the impermanent essence of our deepest emotions. The painting's canvas becomes a battleground of turquoise, blue-grey and a multitude of other colors, where beauty and desire dissolve into the ether, leaving a haunting reminder of their brief existence. Through the deconstruction of a female head and upper body, the artist challenges us to confront the temporal reality of love, beauty, and desire. This piece stands as a poignant reflection on the ephemeral nature of human experience, inviting viewers to find beauty in the fleeting moments of life.
Constantin is a contemporary artist from Fribourg. His main medium is oil paint, which he greatly values for its versatility and depth. Additionally, he uses other techniques like acrylic, ink, charcoal, collage, and screen printing to add more depth and expression to his works. In his art, Constantin shows the contrast and harmony between the man-made world and nature. Some of his urban motifs with graphic lines and imaginative elements give the city environment a playful touch. In his abstract works, he explores the energy and movement of waves, inspired by the power of nature. Other works resemble a narrative journey full of hidden truths – like a labyrinth of mirrors where everyone faces their own desires, fears, and emotions.
