Guillaume Chansarel (Guiyome)

Robert 2 N

Through his compositions, Guillaume Chansarel aims to capture the soul and the spirit of a place. He catches the essence of a city and depicts an atmosphere on the canvas by immortalizing a single street corner. He is interested in Architecture, but also in its graphical representation, in the constructions of perspective and how perspective can deepen an architectural subject. The originality of Guillaume Chansarel’s work also derives from his use of pages from old books as a raw material for his paintings. At first used at random, this painting medium is now a distinctive element of his work. “I especially enjoy working on mega-cities. I like the idea that the city totally overtakes me, thinking it has been there for a long time, it was there and it’s still growing.“
