Sylvain Leblanc
Through his creative approach, Sylvain Leblanc invites the viewer into his world where the subject and everyday objects are intertwined – sometimes at a distance, sometimes closely together. The compositions – whether realistic, imaginary, grotesque or pleasing to the eye – are evidence of Leblanc’s intimate, artistic approach. His intense, dazzling colours are a counterpoint to the delicate lines of the people and objects that are the subject of his work.
“I’m interested in the duality of human nature,” explains Leblanc. “It’s something that defines us, pulling us in opposite directions – forwards and backwards – but in the end, despite doubts and fears, leads us to accept ourselves, flaws and all.”
When he creates his art on wood panels or canvas, Sylvain Leblanc employs a range of materials and techniques. They include acrylic paint, lead pencils and image transfer.
