Gwenaël Salaün


Re-synchronised memories

Gwenaël Salaün creates paintings in the way he used to mix techno music. He selects themes and melodies belonging to our collective memories, applies scratches, accelerations, distortions, and overlaps. He matches elements from our modern culture that otherwise would have never coexisted, revealing the infinite combinations of our subjective reality.

Gwenaël Salaün deconstructs words and imposes white silences. The output is a new language, in constant mutation. It can only be unfinished, with more questions than answers. His art is extremely seductive because so well in sync with our unconsciousness. It carries an incredible energy whilst displaying fragile lines and subtle colours: the reshuffled images and words have gained in strength through a new coherence.
