Léo Galamez is a painter of plant abstraction inspired by the creation of living things.

He draws his inspiration from the attentive, sensory observation of nature, and from the rhythm and vibration of music, both of which nourish the dynamics of his compositions.
Halfway between abstraction and figuration, improvisation and mastery, Léo Galamez's painting is as strong as it is delicate. Each work is a window onto imaginary herbariums, leaves that twirl, plants that seem to shoot out rays of light. Nature is alive, in motion, almost musical. The viewer perceives the artist's pleasure in observing, smelling and tasting it: a carnal and joyful relationship with plants, imbued with curiosity and greed. Léo Galamez's canvases are shot through with intense colors, suggestive fragrances and a resolutely positive energy. The works are free, colorful, instinctive and structured.
The artist's career is marked by his medical studies, which bring to his work a singular approach to living things, attentive to rhythms, flows and balance. Between rigor and intuition, science and poetry, his painting celebrates the profound link between the body, nature and emotion. Behind the teeming, the unstable, the repetitive, the indistinct, the chaotic, it's the sublime of life as matrix, as mysterious necessity, that Léo Galamez tries to capture and fathom.
