Brooklin A. Soumahoro is a self-taught painter who approaches color theory as a matter of both feeling and science. His paintings’ brilliant palettes and dynamic patterns—inspired in part by West African textile designs—transform his canvases into portals, inviting viewers to dive within. Striking a balance between left brain and right, between logic and emotion, comes naturally to Soumahoro, whose paintings exhibit machinelike precision while showcasing textured brushstrokes that reveal the artist’s hand. In addition to scientific qualities, his mind turns toward synesthesia, allowing him to equate musical rhythms with colors and patterns.
Over the past years Brooklin has had exhibitions with Massimo De Carlo (Milano, Italy), François Ghebaly (Los Angeles & New York, USA) and Barbati Gallery (Venice, Italy).
Brooklin A. Soumahoro is born in Paris and based in Los Angeles, USA since 2019.
Léon Wuidar is one of the few Belgian artists who has, throughout his life, persevered in the path of constructive or concrete abstraction. Wuidar’s work is based on precision, discipline and humor; mixing shapes and colors to create harmonious, precise and meticulously balanced compositions. His paintings juxtapose squares, rectangles, polygons, and curves often surrounded by a double border of color and always finished by a simple wooden frame.
Wuidar regularly exhibited for 60 years in Belgium and Europe, notably at Bonnison Art Center (Rognes, France), MAC’s Grand Hornu (Grand Hornu, Belgium), Haus Konstruktiv (Zürich, Switzerland) and Musée Félicien Rops (Namur, Belgium) and is present in many public collections, such as The Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Brussels, Belgium and Centre national d’art et de culture Georges Pompidou in Paris, France. He is also represented by White Cube (London, Hong Kong & New York).
Léon Wuidar is born in 1938 in Liège, Belgium and based in Liège, Belgium.
