Showing the raw, the primitive, the instinct that inhabits nature, this is what François Rastoll wanted to show us with his exhibition “PREDATEUЯ”.
Driven by the unquenchable thirst of the self-taught, Rastoll has been working for twenty-six years as a painter and then a photographer. This last art for which he sometimes uses black and white, sometimes cold colors to reveal his subjects shrouded in mystery.
For the “PREDATEUЯ” exhibition, this man with numerous tattoos and energetic character drew from his archives works often in large formats: 60×90, 80×80, 50×80, 40×60, 50×50, 30 ×30.
This takes us into his world of abstract impressionism mixed with a good dose of dreaminess.
Organized like a hunt in thirteen black and white images and one in color, “PREDATEUЯ” tells the relationship between humans and plants.
Apart from his work in silver, François Rastoll shows his production in ink, nebulae with undulating waves, brushed with pure inks mixed with sapphire or emerald powders.
The gallerist also produced a hundred copies of a catalog of his exhibition, with cover screen-printed on canvas by the C-pia studio, €40.
