Artist Statement for Dimitri Desiron
|

(For detailed information and images, visit www.dimitridesiron.be)
The primary goal of my paintings is to search for the underlying beauty of contemporary urban environments, particulary in places where this beauty is not generally expected or aknowledged: ordinary streets, shops, fastfood restaurants, train stations, industrial zones ... Obviously, architecture plays an important role in this respect, but also the people who live in the city and give it its sense, and cars, that have in a way become an extension of man.
From a formal point of view, I particularly like the rigid geometric shapes typical of urban architecture. Combined with the ever changing light, they create a wide array of possiblities both in composition and in creation of mood.
My reference materials are photographs that I take year round with my digital camera. The paintings themselves are done entirely in the studio.
