olivier zappelli was born in april 2, 1966 lausanne, switzerland, where he studied painting and drawing for many years. the painter lives and works in his studio in fribourg, switzerland
after
the completion of his studies, he traveled extensively throughout
haiti, india and
norway, exploring the art and religion of those
diverse parts of the world. olivier zappelli's works range from the surrealistic to the fancifully photorealistic, in images replete with religious iconography and unwonted, colourful mutations of nature and the organic world.
winged
humans, gargoyle-esque beasts, and intensely vivid forms of shells and sea-life
are some of the subjects of olivier zappelli
paintings. these creatures and creations are perhaps
relics of an unknown, occult chapter of hallowed history, or perhaps the
inhabitants of a chimerical, futuristic world of altered nature and re-defined
symbolisms. |
