Dominique Lecomte
Bio
I spent my early years in Rambervillers, a town in Les Vosges (France).
After a two years sabbatical devoted to study many forms of visual
Art at Ecole de l’Image (School of Images) in the nearby town of Epinal,
I exhibited oils, acrylics, and etchings. In 1994, I went to the
United States to teach French and philosophy in an international
school. I specialized in linocuts and woodcuts. Photography, which
I always used as a visual travel log, became the base of my work.
My private or public buyers live in Brazil, Canada, Denmark, England,
France, Japan, Norway, Sweden, and the United States of America.
Galleries in France and the United States represent me.
Besides art and philosophy, I like reading, writing, traveling, hiking,
swimming, and snow-shoeing.
Statement
I am drawn to the American West by the forms and the grandeur
of its landscapes. In the Northeast, I look for the mystery of
lakes and forests stretching as far as the eye can see, or for the charm
of the coasts with their small villages, rocky edges, and sandy beaches. From
the South, I keep the vibrancy of the colors, from the North, the rigor
of the vast and empty spaces. Cities offer the permanent spectacle
of their buildings and colorful crowds. Sometimes, a detail is
enough to evoke everything.
