Collection: Eric Mahé

“Foliage, hair, volutes and pubescent natures can be guessed by accumulation of regularities: models, motifs, diagrams, structures are executed, repeated and meshed with precision and asceticism. The hypnotic compositions of Éric Mahé are read as a biological noir novel that highlights the imbalances of aqueous environments, at the crossroads of engraving and comic strips.”

Éric Mahé is a French artist born in 1972. Involved in the associative sector for the transmission and promotion of prints and manufactured printed images, he co-founded the Atelier l'impressionie - an engraving and screen printing workshop which organizes the Le Marché Noir festival with three other associations: La Presse Puré, Atelier Barbe à Papier and Atelier du Bourg (which he also joined in 2015). Alongside all these activities, Éric Mahé teaches engraving at the University of Rennes 2.
