Jean-Louis Dhuit, known as Kesta (born in 1936) "Comètes", 2015 Oil on canvas, 80 × 80 cm Signed, dated and located on the back Simple black frame made of black plastic Condition: a few small accidents and surface scratches visible on the colored fields; good overall condition of the painting. Description Abstract square-format composition, built on concentric curves and interwoven ovoid shapes.

The color is laid flat, the brushwork remains visible, the black structures and rhythms the whole. Biography Former student of the École Boulle and the decorative arts, Jean-Louis Dhuit was a set designer at ORTF before settling in Étagnon, near Ambert (Puy-de-Dôme). Under the name Kesta, he develops a personal body of work where geometric and optical abstraction plays a central role, alongside gestural series, landscapes and figures. Regular exhibitions in the Livradois.
