Thomas Durel — À propos — Slash Paris

Durel Thomas is a young French artist, graduate of the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris (MFA). Currently, he lives and works in Lyon, France.
Whether in 2 or 3 dimensions, each work uses paradoxes, striving to combine contradictory ideas, constantly moving back and forth, between formalism and narration, the facetious and the serious, the comfortable and the disturbing, the noble and the ordinary.
Deeply affected by the problems of today, his works are also very inspired by, Pop Art, Minimalism, and all the great artistic movements of the 60’s and 70’s.
