Born 1984 in Monthey, Sylvain Croci-Torti lives and works between Lausanne and Martigny.
Informed by the
Swiss tradition of
geometric abstraction and monochrome—from
Olivier Mosset,
John M Armleder,
Christian Floquet to
Francis Baudevin,
Philippe Decrauzat, and
Stéphane Dafflon—as well as by a decisive interest in the relationships between painting and architecture—i.e. how we perceive and experience two-dimensional works in three-dimensional environments—Croci-Torti is building a cogent body of works dealing with and renewing the eternal parameters of painting—colors, forms, proportions, perspectives, and structures.
He graduated from
ECAL in 2013.
