Introduction
Geoffrey Bouillot is a French artist based in Tokyo since 2011. His work explores the dialogue between popular culture and ancient archetypes between industrial modernity and the spirituality of form. Influenced by manga, Japanese minimalism, and the French avant-garde of the 20th century, he creates geometric and modular figures that are both human and mechanical.
Artistic Philosophy
Geoffrey Bouillot views art as a mirror of contemporary society. His works explore image saturation, repetition, and the role of icons in consumer culture, while paying homage to mass culture.
Style and Technique
Influences: Cubism, futurism, Superflat.
Techniques: Acrylic on canvas
Aesthetic: Mechanical and fragmented, playing between figuration and abstraction
Creative Declaration
I create works that oscillate between the mechanical and the human.
Assembly and disassembly lie at the core of my process: each form becomes a component of a system, an interchangeable part of an ever-shifting whole.
Nothing is generated by machines — everything is painted by hand, in deliberate contrast to the appearance of something mass-produced.
While my pop-inspired series evoke the noise of a society saturated with images and products, my more minimal works stem from a need for silence, simplicity, and a return to the essential.
I don’t aim to settle into a style, but to follow an inner movement.
For me, art is a path Free, evolving, and vital.
