Gregory Watin, originally from France, has been internationaly recognized for his very unique "urban" style. His work has been show in numerous exhibitions in Europe and USA for the last 15 years.
He takes a picture he uses as a sketch. He immerses himself of all things that give strength to this urban landscapes, helooks at these structures marked by time and gather all these elements in order to build an atmosphere, a universe around these places. In his work, he tries to make them his by giving them a second breath of life. That is why he uses brightcolours.
He inlays various element of nature in each of his paintings (woods, symbols, cardboard, plexiglass, bubblepaper, etc...) It could takes time for thepigments and varnish to dry and can take up to six months to spend the necessary time to assimilate itssoul and engrave his signature....
