« Evil, ironic or engaged, my work always aims to have sense of humour »
He works on the edge of borders between good and bad, dark and light, attraction and repulsion to leave a constant question mark. Theo Mercier is a French artist who deals with today’s environment and the danger of extinction. His work constantly refers to metamorphosis and mutation. It is through his own black humour that the artist translates his message into art.
He depicts the precarious balance of our world today and interrogates the spectator. He expresses those ideas through various medias such as installations and photography. Through his surrealistic sculptures, we are transported into a world of the unreal.
