François Delfosse

François Delfosse is to visual art what Sylvia Plath is to poetry and PJ Harvey to rock music. Using charcoal, crayons, Indian ink and paint, the Belgian artist depicts abstract images of confusion, angst and pent-up emotions that cannot fail to disturb. Traces of both Jackson Pollock and Jean-Michel Basquiat can be detected in his nervous breakdowns on canvas. This particularly applies to two works that he completed last year: 'Morning are broken' and 'Edimbourg tatoo'.
