Éric Doisy is a French contemporary artist whose style lies somewhere between abstraction and free figuration, with a strong influence of Art Brut and Expressionism. His work is often characterized by:
• Primitive and spontaneous forms, sometimes close to graffiti or children's art.
• A very free, almost automatic gesture, with an attraction to the instantaneous and raw emotion.
• Bright, contrasting colors, often applied in flat tints or in bold strokes.
• A world populated by stylized figures and symbols, sometimes with isolated letters or words.
• A significant texture, often achieved by layering materials or direct, intuitive application.
Eric Doisy began his career as a salesman before becoming a decorator, where he began designing lamps made of cardboard, plexiglass, wood, etc. His encounter with a graffiti artist marked a decisive turning point in his career. Fascinated by stencil techniques, he first applied them to his lamp creations before experimenting with them on flat surfaces. He also explores collage and other artistic techniques. Admiring the work of JM Basquiat, he felt a strong desire to integrate that "little something extra" in his own work. This introspection led him to gradually erase his stencils, seeking to transcend the technique to achieve a freer, more instinctive expression.
His creative process does not follow predefined series; he often reworks previous works while retaining filigree stencil elements.
His work is marked by layering and depth, testifying to his instinctive approach to drawing. Constantly seeking novelty, he undergoes a long process of maturation and artistic decantation.
The eye is a recurring motif in his work, symbolizing movement and the gaze—whether introspective or turned towards the world. This motif could be interpreted as a reflection of himself, a discovery that often occurs after the fact. Eric seeks to see his works live independently of him, giving free rein to the viewer's imagination to immerse themselves in his work.
