Arthur Poujois is a French cross-displinary artist based in London. His playful and intuitive work entails the act of creation as a process of translation where inspiration exists as an inner vision that begs to come into being.
Aiming to actualise his inner promptings and the sacred realities he contemplates in meditation, Arthur’s work creates a sensory space which widens the possibility of existence. His quick and expressive gestures become the cipher to the contract he intends to make with the viewer, to embrace the unknown and trust one’s gut feeling.
In order to develop a stronger and more intimate bond with the non-human by drawing upon the magical energy found beyond trauma in a patriarchal society, Arthur invites the viewer to experience change, transformation and letting go as a drive to go further in the world.
