Gilles Porret

Gilles Porret observes and captures physical and psychical phenomena, that he perceives through his daily life. He translates his feelings and intuitions into pictorial images as well as metaphors or puns (playing especially with the titles). Throughout the creative process, he is conscious to mark a direction while maintaining a relationship with the unpredictable, the chance, the cause and effect. Building a cross texture, title and image both valorize the mysterious sense of the work's composition. These two moments announce possible poetic worlds. Since 2004, Gilles Porret lives and works in Bière, Switzerland.
