Artist: Ohr Lucé (b. 1983)
Ohr Lucé
European, b. 1983
Ohr Lucé is a European painter, photographer, and digital artist who now calls Singapore home. Through various mediums, the artist investigates the relationship between light as a vehicle and social constructs that influence the artist's comprehension of existence.
Lucé's artistic practice is focused on an intense desire to elicit emotion and contemplation by creating aesthetically pleasing yet evocative work that confronts societal concerns and higher concepts that influence the artist's emotional state and attitude toward society in general.
During his early years, the artist developed a love of drawing and the contrast of light and shade on textured paper. This evolved into a constant exploration of light as a visual language using various mediums, pivoting between environmental concerns and societal change, with the constant need to recreate this perceived world in a more idealistic, aesthetically appealing form of the artist's choosing.
Ohr Lucé (a classically trained artist) has since branched out into a range of mediums, stretching the boundaries of those mediums to produce new experimental forms of creation employing traditional processes with distinctive &, frequently, conceptual outcomes. Ohr Lucé combines printmaking, video, photography, sculpture, & traditional painting techniques to create complex, layered works with a highly controlled sense of order, each organic line painstakingly, if not obsessively plotted, intertwined with contrasting aspects of furore & subtle self-expression. The artworks, which are often described as "precisely controlled chaos," combine the accuracy of geometric abstraction with the movement and sensitivity of light.
Ohr Lucé's unique painting style develops complicated, phantom-like organic forms with each brush stroke. Building on the mechanics of form & structure, these intrinsically organic & playful shapes serve as storytelling conduits, encasing the theme and the artist's personal tale.
