L'ombre du Soleil

Jonathan Vandromme was born in 1983 in the North of France. Self-taught, he began drawing at a young age and became interested in brushes and oil painting in 2007. After practicing pastel drawing, graffiti (Street Art) or traditional frescoes, he began to explore new horizons at the age of 20 which would be the foundation of his future masterpieces. The Artist draws his initial inspiration from intimate experiences, sometimes even from religious ideas from different horizons, from family photos but also from memories or even social experiences which he very often transcribes on his canvases through his own interpretation. great quotes from well-known authors. His Art is nourished and nourished by a myriad of societal sources, thus making his work profound and timeless. This unique combination of sources of inspiration reveals both the set of contrasts arising from human conditions in its absolute, but also the richness of the Artist's work both in its emotional dimension and its sensitivity as well as in its level of creative and technical spontaneity. We are therefore not talking about an interpretation of an artistic movement or even a “re” interpretation of one of them… It is truly a genius which is unique to Jonathan and which he has been able to take advantage of to create his own movements and currents, overcoming the weight and responsibilities which accompany the talent and perfectionism of which he holds the secret of the end of his fingers. Jonathan Vandomme is a hurricane which does not respond to any climatic logic, his strength and his tenderness come from the depths of his being, from his soul and, even if he seems to ignore it, from his unconscious. He is one of those who define the present and the future without altering the past and the entire heritage of a discipline, that of artistic painting.
