Didier Delamonica, carries us joyfully and playfully through a myriad of stories inspired from legends, myths, tales and biblical accounts. His huge paintings are reminiscent of lavish jigsaw puzzles, with their intricate detail, archetypes, characters and animals from diverse pictorial traditions. The viewer is enchanted by their dream-like, colourful poetry and wanders along with the artist through the labyrinths of faith, as well as through life‘s mysteries, recalling stories from the artist’s childhood. We listen with joy to the celestial music and rhythms emerging from the artist‘s pictorial fantasy.
