Clément Lemieux
Artistic approach
Father of 12 children, his muse is love, the body and family ties. His passion for Judo allowed him to learn to study and work the human body thus helping him to better situate movement and position in space on his sublime sculptures.
His abstract subjects, simplified to their most elementary forms, have clean lines an audacious choice of colours. The artist has developed over time the ability to associate form and colour, varnished in polyurethane. His unique sculptures go from 6 inches to 13 feet and express all human form.
His colourful abstract paintings demonstrate an ample but controlled stroke.
