Maxime Déria | Painting

Maxime Déria, a passionate French artist, explores the intricacies of his life through spontaneous and captivating art. He embraced painting in 2022, marking an artistic renewal. The collaboration with the famous brand Desperados in 2023 added a new dimension to his creative expression. Attached to his Breton region, Maxime draws his inspiration from Breton history and culture, drawing particular inspiration from the works of Raymond Hains and Jacques Villeglé, discovered at the School of Fine Arts of Saint-Brieuc. Collage, a technique he has developed in recent years, enriches his creative process. His work, imbued with intuition, results in subliminal messages and hidden references. Maxime, firmly believing in the professionalization of his art, encourages spectators to contemplate his works attentively, thus revealing the emotional richness and complexity of his artistic universe. His determination to share vibrant art invites everyone to explore the multiple layers of his artistic expression.

Completely self-taught, Maxime Déria instinctively grasped the rigor of collage in the manner of Jacques Villeglé or Raymond Hains, appropriating the medium to tell fragments of personal history. The painting completes and contributes to the overall dynamism of the images.
In accordance with his time and transposing the subjects in a breath of renewal, Maxime Déria reinvents the gesture of tearing away towards sculptural reflections. His sense of aesthetics reveals an assertive positioning and a culture that is refined both through popular imagery and art history.
