This French artist's work comes into being through the use of white.Using geometry he creates a timeless space through the association of shapes and a subtle collage of paint.O. Mérijon sees his painting as a mirror, that of a fragmented world which will only last by using its multitude of facets to piece oneself together. His longs walks in Paris take him to his favourite haunts, the museums, the banks of the Seine and its bouquinists. He enjoys shopping in the rue Lepic, wandering in the sixth arrondissement to encounter his friend, the composer JB Loussier, yet mysteriously he likes looking westwards towards Versailles where, since 1980, he has had his studio, tucked away in a closed cobbled courtyard.
