Colombier's skate ramp @ Galerie Metropolis, Paris, 2012 |
His sceneries depict imaginary, fairytale like worlds where human figures are non existent. A black background serves as a basis for surprising murals in oil pastels. Stylized trees, woods, clouds, waves, lightning, flowers, geometrical figures and biblical symbols are the subjects of his pieces. These contemporary fresco's render the devastating power of nature by the repetition of patterns.
Deeply inspired by Henri Matisse and filmmakers David Lynch and Tim Burton, he always creates a dreamlike, dark atmosphere. The designer concentrates on conveying a particular sphere instead of telling stories.
In 2011 Colombier was asked to decorate Chanel pop up shop at Harrod's, followed by an illusionist skate ramp at Galerie Metropolis, a tapis plein at Brafa fair Brussels(2012) and limited edition carpets for Didden & co(2013).
