Statement
Théo Metais is a French Berlin-based contemporary painter whose work explores themes of journey, impermanence and inner transformation. Informed by a decade-long career as a film journalist, his visual language draws on the narrative power of cinema and the expressive potential of painting, illustration and comic book. Working primarily with a limited color palette, he employs charcoal, oil paint, ink and various printmaking techniques to reinterpret photograph into compositions that merge figuration and landscape. Through his refined use of blur and motion, his work invites quiet reflection on memory, movement, and the passage of time, all with a dash of humor.
