Description of the Artwork “Transiency”
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.
Artwork in the interior
Constantin Roucault, Switzerland
Constantin Roucault, a contemporary Swiss artist who 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.
