描述

Olivier Debré's abstract paintings reflect his psychological states when confronted with the spectacle of nature. In this nearly monochrome painting, a vast, fluid expanse of deep blue evokes the movement of water and foam. At the edge, Debré traces delicate white waves, while a thick impasto of yellow creates a striking contrast against the intensity of the blue. Inspired by the Atlantic as seen from Saint-Georges-de-Didonne in southwest France, the work's monumental format invites viewers to immerse themselves in the painting-ocean.
