FRÉDÉRIC DUMOULIN
b. 1979, BelgiumFrédéric Dumoulin creates enigmatic, monochromatic paintings inspired by nature and mythology: mountains, rivers, ancient ports, Homeric characters, and cities. His practice is guided by a desire to build a harmonious world where each element finds its natural place. Starting from small, minimal drawings, he develops compositions through layered fields of color that emit subtle “noises” or singular voices. His process is deeply intuitive and meditative, often beginning in silence before the canvas, and letting his mood impact the composition. Dumoulin is influenced by spirituality, religion, and mans relation to nature as well as artists Peter Doig, Cezanne, and Morandi.
Frédéric Dumoulin’s studied painting at La Cambre National School of Visual Arts, in Brussels. His work has been shown in group and solo shows in Belgium, including Pingpong Gallery (Brussels), Island (Brussels), and Dauwens & Beernaert Gallery (Brussels).
