Cédrix Crespel is an artist who symbolizes a generation open to its era culture. He examines the representation of women. In the middle of the 90s, aware of the need for artsits to lay down roots in their culture, he soon abandoned academic drawing, renounced pencils and lines, inventing a figurative from of expression.
"Abstraction? Figuration? The two spaces coexist here without ignoring each other with the hope of a possible symbiosis between what the painter and the lover know, what they can say and everything that vibrates beyond exhausted words. Because the image freezes within the limits of the form. However, time has told us, love is a dance where the fluidity of each new movement calls for possibilities, suggestion and resonances of the eternal." - Cédrix Crespel
Cédrix Crespel’s painting is a sensual odyssey. But never misunderstand, Cédrix doe not paint a woman or even a muse. He strives to represent, to draw the unrepresentable. Namely the link that binds him to his wife. In fact, he retraces and modernizes the history of the couple in art. From the tension in desire to the obsessions haunting him, Cédrix Crespel implies the sexual and sensual, and the reverse.
