Born in 1990 in Paris, France
After his studies at the Fine Arts School
of Nantes, where he now lives and works, Justin Weiler graduated from the
Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2017. For a while, he was the artist in residence at the
Académie de France in the Casa de Velazquez, in Madrid. He presented his work
in many solo and collective exhibitions in France, China, Cyprus, and
Luxembourg and received several awards. His practice with Indian ink revolves
around the colour black and is part of a constant reinterpretation of pictorial
questioning, materiality, and physicality. Through everyday motifs – awnings,
shop windows, iron curtains, glasshouses, screens – the artist's works create
threads and cuts that shift the painting's frames.
