Jacques Bodin

Who is Jacques Bodin?

Jacques Bodin is a French hyperrealist painter who has shown his hyperreal paintings in Paris and Milan. His work accentuates photographic deviations from reality to create a hyperrealism reference. Subject matter includes extreme closeup views of exacting images cast in shadow through reflective lighting.

His paintings, generally of extremely large dimensions, are executed from photos projected on the canvas from an episcope or videoprojector.

He works in diverse subject themes such as grass, fruits, hair, trees and vegetation and is exceptionally organized in the manner in which he captures his subjects and depicts them with meticulous attention. Approaching minimalism, some of his works embark on a conceptual aspect of hyperreality.
