Ced, collage and pixel 🇧🇷

Born in 1968, he studied art in the United States at Northwest Community College and then at the prestigious Emile Cohl school of drawing in Lyon. He lived in Brazil for more than ten years where he began his artistic career.

Today, numerous exhibitions have been held around the world, in Buenos Aires, Barcelona, Tokyo, Miami and more recently in Cape Town, South Africa and Berlin.

Ced is a modern pointillist, an explorer of the pixel. This French artist places it at the heart of his artistic work as a symbol of human imperfection.

For more than 20 years, he has been taking us into the magic of his universe: confetti collages that you have to see up close to discover this meticulous work full of winks around many personalities… but also oil paintings that you have to discover this time from much further.

Ced’s message is to know how to distance ourselves from the screens that transform us into Homo Digitalis, into a pixelated man. So, as a way to answer this questioning, he invites us to look at his paintings with the help of our mobile phones in order to transform them, as if by magic, from abstract to figurative.

Everything fascinates us about Ced, starting with his name: the originality of his art, the meticulousness of his technique and above all the incredible rendering that changes according to the distance from which we admire it. It’s joyful, it’s playful, it’s happy like us.

However, we appreciate the depth of the reflection on our relationship with screens and pixels!!!
