Marc GENEIX, born in 1975
Marc Geneix has lived in Brittany for the past seven years, and began creating sculptures and paintings using lutherie techniques in a minimalist approach, focusing on simple geometric forms. On the other hand, in a paradoxical but assertive way, he is also particularly attached to an expressive form and searches for points of friction. It's a game of contrasts, and in this sense, he tries to work playfully with minimal forms within a rich semantic field, creating a discrepancy.
Often, this discrepancy is dealt with by working details into basic shapes, by playing with textures, or by a kind of narrative created by adding references to the history of art or furniture, musical instruments, etc. Many elements in his work refer to the history of the world of furniture. Numerous elements in his work refer to craftsmanship, through the appropriation of know-how, techniques, materials, etc. This naturally leads Marc Geneix to work in which the production of objects - and, by extension, design - plays an increasingly important role. Today, he is driven by the idea of creating a dialogue between these different bodies - art/design, sculptures/paintings/objects - and by the creation of a system of circulation of forms, materials and techniques, between pictorial and sculptural pieces, and furniture.
As part of the Ar Seiz Avel event, he is offering a selection of wooden furniture, including an asymmetrical desk with a bronze handle.
