French artist Pascal Blondeau lives and works in New York, for the
past 5 years he has been devoted to identity and the human condition.
The double "I" that exists in all of us increasingly fascinates him,
looking for an aesthetic and a beauty beyond perfection which makes
losing the
human being in a quest for an absolute that he may reach ever,
loneliness not assumed that weakens and isolates against a world rich
but violent, seeking through a peace and happiness, means too chaotic,
leading to a form of madness ... as well as that aspect
“ugly-beautiful’’ appearance, soft-hard,
angel-demon, hot-cold.
His work is comprised of photo-portraits of real
people and portraits display
mannequins, they are mixed thoroughly to obtain a mixture of true-false human
being.
In July 2009, the series Deneuve and Lady Swing were
performed in Bangkok, where he had an exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Art, he was
the cultural season French Artist invited by the French Embassy. This series was a long process of transformation of the
