About me

Diako in 1968 recolorized pictured I’m born in 1951 in Douala, Cameroon. I grew up submerged in the colours of Africa before moving to Paris in 1961, where I lived until 1977. I then studied at l'Académie des Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles from 1977-82.

Lines of thought

Testimony
As a fugitive music in time, my concept of painting is a stroke that evolves from time. A performance of texture on surface, that can be interrupted and reworked.

From the edges when emptiness reaches for space, the artist accompanies it. In working, he empties himself. He steps up to view, withdraws to see. Creation in void, saturates fragments and brings back the fragility of the image. 

I paint in the horizontal, the painting stands up all alone, it takes its position all alone. I look at it from above, I by-pass it.I do not force. I always follow it.
