Some things just sound better in a French, am I right?! And the expletive ‘merde’ in definitely one of those words. Artist Mathieu Julien has given it a lovely mid-century modern feel, so whatever the situation is, it can’t be that bad! May e a good card for your best frenemy!

Freed from the tradition of academic art, Mathieu Julien’s work is optimised by his improvisations on colour theory, like a freeform jazz musician.
His colours disobediently form crooked squares and rectangles, or elongated stalks. Some colour combinations make two areas of the canvas compete with each other, creating areas of both tension and calm.
The work are colourful mosaics built of windows, goal posts, entrances, strands and bars, the colouring-in is like playing with Lego bricks, whose aim is not a specific building but an unchained celebration of paint.
