English Version

« Through drawing, I extend the moment, make it my own, and share it. » « My true work is that of light, constantly asking myself the same question: When to stop darkening? » – Eric Sala

The artist draws inspiration from his walks and strolls in nature to select figurative and naturalist subjects. His ink, brush, or fountain pen drawings are contemplative and minimalist in style. His attention may focus on a perspective, a form, or a play of shadow and light, which he sketches on site to outline the composition. Then, millimeter by millimeter, he densifies the work to create a dialogue between black and white until the magic happens. Through his ink drawings, Eric Sala takes us on a journey through the nature he cherishes.
