Timothée’s current series of paintings draws inspiration from the Verdures, the lush, foliage-rich tapestries of the Renaissance. His technique, which incorporates stencils and imprints, creates a dynamic sense of complexity, evoking an undergrowth that feels both chaotic and ordered. While his approach echoes that of 19th-century landscape painters who worked en plein air, Timothée engages with nature not as a subject to be reproduced but as a collaborator. This results in a form of abstract landscape that intertwines the natural world with the canvas.

Working with spray paint, stencils, and prints, each element—whether branch, leaf, or tree—develops its own distinct visual language, eliminating the need for traditional drawing or direct reproduction. The environment is presented in its raw, unmediated form, creating a rich texture that emerges from the proximity of plants to the canvas. Central to Timothée’s process is the role of chance and surprise, with each work offering a sense of unpredictability and engagement.

The artwork becomes a space where species contribute their unique identities, weaving together an organic narrative shaped by patterns and forms found in Timothée’s garden. The resulting imagery can range from the microscopic to the cosmic, inviting viewers to contemplate both the minutiae of nature and the vastness of the universe.
