Matthias Mergot partage sa vie et son travail entre Paris et la Normandie.

Sa peinture, intuitive et lumineuse, s'efforce de construire une architecture sensible. Il construit et déconstruit la matière, utilise des couleurs et des impressions possiblement extraites de la nature pour restituer des images vagues. Les lignes y sont récurrentes, le minéral, le végétal et la trace de l'eau omniprésents.

Ses traces laissées sont autant de signes qui racontent une histoire. Se référant à une représentation organique à travers la matière, il parle de sa perception sensible du monde qui l'entoure et de l'évolution de cette perception.

Matthias Mergot a Parisien-born painter, currently lives between Paris and Normandy.

His artworks are luminous and uniquely constructed. In his paintings he seeks to deconstruct the very raw materials he uses to create his works, using colours and techniques extracted from nature. Organic representations are present throughout his works via the specifically selected materials used. Recurrent themes in his works are from the earth, mineral, plant and water.

These traces are also symbols and imagery from which stories and history lie behind. His paintings echo the artist's perception and consciousness of the world around him and the evolution of his emotional and sensorial responses to the world.
