Antoine Stevens (1987) - Cléo

Original work unique created in acrylic on canvas. Born in 1987 in the north of France, Antoine Stevens discovers graffiti during his adolescence before developing a studio painting practice from 2005. His artistic universe sits at the crossroads of street art and contemporary figurative portraiture. Through a free gestural approach, layers of material, controlled drips and graphic interventions, he composes portraits of great emotional intensity where realism and abstraction meet. His work is today presented in several galleries in France and internationally. With Maia, Antoine Stevens offers a striking female portrait where the softness of the features contrasts with the energy of the painting gesture. The face emerges gradually from the canvas, bathed in shades of blue, pink, white and ochre that seem to blend into the material. The long vertical drips, splashes and graphic interventions add depth and spontaneity to the composition. The gaze, at once intense and melancholic, constitutes the anchor point of the work. The effects of transparency and the superpositions of colors create an almost dreamlike atmosphere, characteristic of Antoine Stevens’ work. Between classic portrait and contemporary abstraction, Maia bears witness to the artist’s technical mastery and his ability to convey an immediate emotion.
