A contemporary artist with a unique approach, Olivier de Kerten builds bridges between geometry and emotion. His work unfolds across two distinct yet deeply connected practices: articulated sculptures that set form in motion, and abstract paintings that set color free.
Born from a rigorous geometric period, his sculptural polyhedrons invite touch and transformation, while his gestural canvases capture the raw energy of liberated color. Whether you handle the structure or follow the brushstroke, you enter a dialogue with an artist for whom movement is everything.

His work splits a single root—early geometric painting—into two complementary paths: sculptures that set form in motion, and paintings that set colour free. In his articulated polyhedrons, structure becomes interactive, bending and pivoting at the viewer's touch. On his canvases, liberated hues explode in gestural layers, recording the trajectory of the artist's hand. Whether through the pivot of a joint or the sweep of a brush, de Kerten invites us to experience art not as a fixed statement, but as a dynamic, tactile journey where order and chaos finally dance together.
