Discover the contemporary work of Eric BACHET
Nowadays, you can find Eric Bachet's works all year round at "Les Arts Vintage" 3 rue du Gladimont, 80200 Péronne. Born in Chartres, a city dominated by its famous Gothic-style cathedral, Eric Bachet then spent the first years of his life in the heart of the oldest city in France, called since Antiquity "the Gate of the Orient", Marseille. His interest in the Temples and Pyramids of Egypt generates a real fascination and awakens in him the memory of an era, of a feeling... And it is quite naturally that he joins a school of Architecture. For three years he will learn about this civilization and decipher the magic of Egyptian Art. The teaching of this monumental architecture completed he will spend a year at the Ecole Supérieure Des Beaux-arts in Marseille but he interrupts his studies to go up to the capital. Indeed, a long artistic work mixed with an inner journey supported by the precepts of Buddhism and Taoism led him to Paris in 1985. Ancient Egypt leaves a particular taste for the precision of gesture, the multiplicity of geometric figures, the richness of symbols, the revelation of forgotten or unknown colors on Eric Bachet's pictorial writing. The world of Meditation modifies its evolution and then highlights the notion of perpetual change of the elements that surround us. The result will be, from 1996, an elaborate and abstract Impression of the visible world. This discovery will quickly become a revelation since he practices meditation on a daily basis and now teaches it within a Multidisciplinary Artistic Center located in Péronne in the Hauts de France. By creating his Harmonic Mandalas, he mixes with a beautiful balance, the art of meditation and pictorial art linked by the present moment. The magma is created. It contains the seeds of what will be generated in the 2000s. The crystallization of the present moment is carried out through his paintings "Chromogram" and the reading of the inner world comes to life thanks to a single line, a single and continuous stroke that he will call the "Monoline". Meditation on the mysteries of ancient times where chaos reigned, contemplation on the beauty of the worlds undeniably permeate and underline the singularity of this unusual graphic design. Today, Eric Bachet's work is being constructed and defined. Like a building that leads you on the path of being, it announces the opening towards the magnificence of essential acts.
