Le Diuzet Albert | Contemporary Artist: Artworks & Biography

For a time, Albert preferred the freedom of expression of watercolour; the water and colours mix with an element of the unknown, without composition, nor retouches. After many years devoted to this technique, he began searching for the Turner-inspired spontaneity of his watercolours in oils. He works the medium without composition, with a knife, spatula or trowel, applied directly onto cardboard or canvas. This technique gives an abstract freedom of expression while maintaining the realism of the subject. Albert’s origins are in the sea, always turning to it to seek answers to his doubts and artistic wanderings. It is in the sea, as in the womb, that he finds his reflection, an identity, a new life. In Brittany, Dunkirk or Meze on the Mediterranean, it is the sea that calls and replies.
