Mala Bestia: Toma L

First monograph of a major contemporary artist. This monograph on French artist Toma-L gathers a large selection of his works, which can be found all over the world. France, Belgium, Canada, Austria, the United States and the United Arab Emirates are just some of the countries where galleries exhibit his work. Toma-L is constantly seeking to reinvent and discover new media. He masters lithography, mixes techniques on canvas or wood, and creates frescoes. A polymorphous artist, he also works with other artists – video artists, producers, dancers, choreographers, photographers, editors, graphic designers, etc. – on a wide range of projects. His paintings show how instinctive is his gesture. Toma-L lets himself be carried away in a “free and instinctive expression”, as he likes to say himself. The artist often meets with lyrical abstraction in his vibrant works. The constraint of bodies, movement or space give birth to hybrid works that belong to various artistic fields.
