Presentation
A painter who walks a tightrope, Jean-Paul Debout transforms his doubt into luminous tension, making each canvas a fragile burst of light where reality wavers and reveals its own intimate flaws, even today.
A painter of luminous dissonance, Jean-Paul Debout walks a tightrope between reality and fiction. His oscillation and doubt feed into a tense body of work that is never obvious.
Born into a pampered childhood but marked by isolation, he finds in this discrepancy the source of an inner world where the imagination asserts itself without permission.
Drawing becomes his breath, appearing on windows, sand or notebooks, until it rivals reality. Exploring various paths — art, theatre, singing, sport — he seeks the right form.
Painting then imposed itself as the only space capable of containing his urgency and freedom. His canvases, splinters of dissident reality, allow colours and shapes to collide, revealing flaws and shifts. Nothing is docile: objects, perspectives and silhouettes elude us. He paints as one resists, through sudden bursts and overflowing, making each image a vital necessity.
