Yann Leto (born in Bordeaux, 1979) is essentially a painter who is free of orthodoxy, so that his messages continually transpire between the installations, creating a language in which hybridization is the key. In an expansive work, boundaries pose as an inconvenience to be eliminated, and thus the iconoclasm and the critique uphold.
The use of irony does not trivialize sociopolitical criticism. His dense painting produces images that are conceived as a collage in which the typographical elements coexist with an intense revision of the great classical paintings, where the void of no-paintplanes dissipates from the image.
This collage arises from a body of research that compels him to accumulate hard drives saturated with digital files, Google images, press clippings and articles. Regarding this archive –almost sickening– a ‘no rules’ approach of the protagonists is developed, a visual emotional cycle that repositions the human being in a society marked by its restlessness.
