Beaux Arts school of Paris’s degree (DNSAP)
(École nationale supérieure des Beaux Arts de Paris) ENSBA
Siegfried Jegard draws the same way he
breathes. His drawings run through the pages as a deaf contamination. All the way long of an
automatic drawing style, characters, hybrid creatures, naive monsters and
other images of ourselves combine themselves to their environment and
participate to the dream like putting on scene, the fantasy of the instant. Each shape seems to generate another, infinitely. Lines get tangled,
sketching a mythological and intimate world, at the edge of child’s imagination
and the disenchantment of teen age. Guided by his intuition and his
sensibility, the line scatters his organic constructions and creatures in a candid
progression.
In his last solo show, « Far away
eyes », the artist stands back with his practice of automatic drawing.
Operating a selection in protean universe, he distils a clearer framework
where his imagination easily get something to focus on. He takes control on a viral and free drawing in order to lead it to more frontal and asserted visions.
