+ OVERVIEW
French born artist, Geoffrey Bouillot, currently lives and works in Japan. His work is evidently informed by these two cultures, and examines a unique dynamic of pop art, cubism, and Italian futurism. Bouillot's distinctive still-lifes and portraits are imbued with symbols related to alchemy as well as patterns that are inspired by ancient civilizations. It has been said of his work, “Composed of metallic-like stacking cylindrical and spherical forms, each character morphs nostalgic cartoons into unfamiliar forms, speaking to a collision of culture – from the ancient to the deep future.”Bouillot has exhibited across Tokyo Japan including numerous solo and group exhibitions, he was featured as a guest artist at Shibamata Art World, an art event held in Shibamata, Tokyo . He has also collaborated with uniqueboard.com to create a series of collectible and experiential AR art objects that transform his iconic monochromatic figures into interactive digital artwork.
