Born in August 1990 in Versailles and trained as a decorative painter, Jean-Baptitse Boyer is part of the young generation of contemporary painting : the one that moves away from th "all-abstract" and the concept to create a contemporary art woven with oth references of today and savoir-faire established for centuries.
In a bowl is a painting that embraces the codes of classicism through the use of chiaroscuro. However, the artist incorporates identifiable contemporary elements, such as the setting of a skatepark and the woman's clothing and posture.
