"As an artist, I tend to redefine the causes of my emotions, my thoughts, my feelings through imaginary maps for showing and sharing the human mental architecture."
Philippe Halaburda
Born in France / Works in New York
Philippe calls his paintings “geographical abstractions”. He reconstructs recognizable details of an urban environment (angular shapes that look like construction debris or suggestion of skyscrapers, for example) according to his personal impression of pecific locations like New York, Aix-en-Provence, and Zurich. But Philippe doesn’t try to organize everything - where everything is fast, noisy, smelly, and overall so extra-, you gotta lean into the chaos and learn how to enjoy it.
Combing his different skills and led by his intuition, the French-born multidisciplinary artist & designer Philippe Halaburda structures logical lines and mathematical angles to put chaotic emotions on canvas. Through his travels, the artist explores the relationship between human emotions and their environment.

You can remember streets by that one detail only you notice (turquoise door? wonky wainscoting? stain that looks like Jesus?)
