Born in 1989 in Paris, Robin Obitz lives and works in Marseille.

"My work is built on the desire to go beyond the faithful representation of space to draw the viewer into a fantasized place. Losing the notion of reality to seek the essence of the subject."

Through successive planes, entanglements of lines and shapes, and a play of perspective deviation and contortion, Robin Obitz's canvases seek the horizon and resemble windows, openings into the reality of our standardized environments. The artist opens up spaces, paths to be taken, worlds to inhabit but also to get lost in – the painter willingly playing at the edge of abstraction.

A form of cubist lyricism, Robin Obitz's painting is born from the encounter between the rigor of composition, structured lines inspired by architectural drawing, and an exaltation, a fervor of color that he pushes to the limit of saturation.

In these reconstructions of increasingly destructured landscapes, natural space gains ground. It thus becomes an artificial paradise, a "nature fiction," and is embedded in an almost digital imagination.
