Biography
I transpose reality into a rich and inventive painting. The work is both real and imaginary. S. Dez began his artistic career with contemporary works and gradually turned to singular art. After studying at the Superior School of Modern Art, S. Dez regularly organizes numerous personal or group exhibitions. S. Dez's paintings do not seek to make us think, analyze, they want to make us feel and feel. The painter S. Dez seems to express on his canvases emotions according to a double personality, a double style of his own and which may, at first glance, seem contradictory.

The scenes, characters, animals and other elements expressed are dissected, laid bare and, with a masterly provocative naivety, they are demonized: “I invent a bestiary populated by mad cows, rhinos on wheels or fantastic dragons. I paint a humorous portrait of frogs with glasses or flowery cats. I also study human relationships by creating series of portraits, couples, couples in love, caught in the whirlwind of feelings: upside down, upside down. »His Contemporary style is a style of producing effects of one or more structures on the elements that constitute them, according to the place that, according to him, they occupy there. "I play with shapes, colors, materials to arouse an emotion". The elements drawn from the natural, the living as well as the symbolic, he takes them out of their envelope, their matrix to extract the new, the beauty hitherto hidden, reconstructed, revealed. The falsely naive dimension of the works should invite scrutiny of the details because it is an imaginative and spontaneous process. So S. Dez are you Dr Jekyll or Mister Hyde? No, you are quite simply a man but also a great artist exorcising on his paintings the same search for himself. To pierce the abscess and show the two facets of oneself, it is to seek the beautiful in each one, in everything, it is to discover by stripping.
