Discover the contemporary work of Gil Nijar
Nature is a work of art and all attempts, even the most daring, to equal its beauty remain in vain. They nevertheless remain the testimony of an immeasurable love for the work of the Creator. But to be sincere this love must be stripped of all pretension and the artist, in his faith and with humility, get rid of his lamé fabrics that attract the eye.
It happened to me sometimes to find myself in my creations and to lose myself at the same time without ever really entering the light of the Great Architect of the Universe, lulled by illusions by a few glimmers glimpsed in my quest towards the inaccessible beauty.
My works are offered on a high-quality canvas stretched manually on a frame made of FSC-certified spruce wood, also handmade. Each canvas is made with special solvent-free inks.
To the definition of artist, I prefer the term "image creator" which seems to suit me better. Comic book fan (Moebius, Enki Bilal, Manara, Métal Hurlant...), computer graphics artist by training and designer when time is not limited, I traded my oil art chalks a few years ago for the "tools" of a digital palette or should I say "instruments" because each of my works is music in writing carried by hypnotizing bass lines. My works are "remixed" and reconstructed through the associations of ideas that cross my mind.
