Sebastien Nedjar
was born in Paris, France in 1977. The self-thought sculpture and
installation artist studied at Corvisart School of Graphic Arts in
Paris, where his artistic endeavour begun.
In 2009, he takes a "break" to travel. He first goes to
United States in New York, then following this, to the Middle East
in Cairo and in Asia to Bangkok for enrichies is knowledge and
discover other cultures.
Nedjar's approach covers a wide range of skills and disciplines. In his
creation, he explores the connection between the artist and the
material, painting and sculpture, object and environment. His
artistic practice espouses aestheticism and symbolism; often
contrasted by use of traditional and modern methods or delicate; it
combines elegant materials with those cheap and industrial. His
approach with the master/piece in itself is made of contradiction
and ambivalence, but it is always in adequation with his convictions
and strong artistic pulsions. Something powerful stands out,
something instinctive and very singular in his univers.
His work has been reviewed in be-Art Magazine Los Angeles / Art
Presta Paris and will be shown to the Palais de Tokyo in Paris. He wins some acknowledgement from
the Saatchi Gallery in London who selected him two times on their
screen project. He was received by the Serpentine Sackler gallery in
London and by the Foundation Cartier in Paris. He lives and works between Paris and London. |
