Antoine Traineau’s work explores the unstable moment when images emerge, fade or vibrate between light and obscurity. Using airbrush layers, pointillism and material surfaces, he creates scenes where forms appear as fleeting presences. His compositions often function like perceptual filters—spaces where luminosity, shadow and a sense of warmth or glow interfere with visibility. These veils create a tension between what is revealed and what withdraws, inviting viewers into a state of slowed, uncertain vision.
Traineau’s work carries a quiet mysticism: each piece hovers between apparition and disappearance, between physical surface and immaterial sensation.
