About
Bark – Guillaume Cugnet by his real name – is 24 years old french artist, born in Normandy, Lisieux, and living since 3 years in the city of Guyancourt.
He is driven by a creative desire during his teenage years, by his passion for graffiti universe. Initiating himself to this practice, he shaped a part of his artistic identity.
Though this first fascination never really left him, he knew how to enrich his vocabulary over the years, by the curiosity that characterizes his work. This is the aspect of his personnality in which he blossoms and his work evolves. Not only in reference to multiple artistic cultures, but also through significant recognition of the work of its peers.
He mainly approaches painting as a means of a sensitive expression of the world around him. In his paintings, shapes and colors are both the translation and the physical restitution of a spirit in the air of time.
The dynamics of his traits, sometimes vigorously assured, sometimes subtle and refined, give rise to movement. The powerful contrasts pay tribute to the history of humanity, the many details evoke the diversity and complexity of life. Bark invites us to share with him both intimate and universal dreams and emotions.
