Arthur Lemaitre

Arthur Lemaitre (b. 1994 in Burgandy, France) asks the viewer to reflect upon what is imagined and what is real. He uses traditional techniques to push his practice to the borders of realism and surrealism - stealing from nature while remaining committed to the rigours of architectural drawing. As a student in Paris, confronted with limited intimate space vis a vis the immensity of the city and the ghosts of its artistic past rubbing shoulders with the present, Lemaitre found in the in-between, a melodious resonance.
