In this captivating work, the artist immerses us in a world where abstraction and figuration meet harmoniously. The composition is dominated by bold geometric shapes, where black and red compete for the spotlight, creating a striking contrast on a pure white background. The flat areas of color are covered with textured gold elements, bringing a tactile and visual richness to the whole. The most striking element of this creation is undoubtedly the presence of three stylized human figures, seated at the top of the canvas. These metallic silhouettes, simplified to the extreme, seem to observe the scene with joy. Their enigmatic position invites the viewer to reflect on the interaction between humans and abstract art, perhaps symbolizing contemplation, observation or even criticism. The choice of colors is not insignificant. Red, the color of passion and action, contrasts with black, symbolizing the unknown and mystery. The golden touches recall the precious imperfection of craftsmanship and the traces of time. The division of the canvas into several sections, which is reminiscent of the work of the Cubists, creates a dynamism and symmetry broken by the irregular flat tints. Each section invites a meticulous visual exploration, while the golden textures bring an additional dimension to the painting. The artist brilliantly masters the balance between geometric abstraction and human presence, succeeding in questioning our perception and interpretation of contemporary art. This work is an invitation to reflection, a bridge between order and chaos, the rational and the emotional. A true ode to the interaction between form, color and matter.

Born in 1977 in Hô-Chi-Minh-City, Vietnam, Olivier Messas is a painter living between France and Germany. After moving to France from Vietnam at the age of two, he quickly developed an independent character while remaining attached to his family and cultural values.
Initially orientated towards studies in accounting, Messas did not find satisfaction in this path and turned to fashion and styling before finally finding his true mode of expression in painting. His art, a subtle blend of realism and spirituality, draws inspiration from his many travels and encounters with different cultures. He distinguishes himself through vivid colors and clean lines, representing a balance between his emotions and his cultural heritage.
Olivier Messas regularly exhibits his work in Europe and Asia, and has received numerous awards, including the "Peinture & Sculpture" prize at the Salon International d'Art Contemporain in Saint-Tropez in 2016. His work is recognized for its ability to create unique atmospheres and moods, making him an artist appreciated for sharing and meeting with the public.
For Messas, artistic creation is an escape from the real world and a way of expressing his imagination and creative impulses. His work aims to strike a coloristic and structural balance, while conveying his impressions and intuitions through harmonious, evocative compositions.
