Une indescriptible joie

Hugo Pondz

At Hugo Pondz, it all starts with a colour: blue. An omnipresent, soothing, almost hypnotic blue. His canvases transport us to a suspended world, where the air seems lighter and time stretches out infinitely. Deserted swimming pools, skyscraper rooftops, motionless golf courses, sea horizons... each scene seems both familiar and strange. These are frozen moments, bathed in light, where silence becomes palpable. Nothing is emphasised, everything exudes clarity and simplicity — and yet, there is a subtle tension, a quiet vertigo. Hugo Pondz invites the viewer to slow down, to contemplate, to pause for a moment on the edge of the void to breathe more deeply.
