Souleymane Konate

Souleymane Konaté painted with acrylic on canvas. He builds his paintings in successive layers: using different techniques such as splashes, marbling and glueing. Its characters are two-dimensional, their depth is created by the juxtaposition of layers. It is further accentuated by details such as stars, flowers, dots or other symbols of different sizes, visible both in the background and on the bodies of the characters themselves. Soul uses vibrant, saturated and contrasting colours that most artists would not dare to combine. However, his compositions remain very harmonious and perfectly balanced. Grouped by two or more, intertwined or connected by a ribbon, the subjects exude a sense of social cohesion and belonging.
