The central element is a blurred, ethereal image contrasted against bold rectangular frames and hexagonal patterns in muted tones of blue, green, and brown.

Grichka Commaret creates intimate airbrushed paintings that reflect both personal and communal histories. His compositions draw on urban environments—public transport, city lights, surveillance systems, and brutalist architecture—while also referencing his family and the neighborhood of his youth. Working in small formats, Commaret encourages viewers to engage closely with the work, discovering subtle textures and carefully rendered details that might otherwise go unnoticed. His paintings unfold like narratives, depicting a city in constant motion and transformation.
