Garden Sounds Gabriel Riesnert
In “Garden Sounds”, Gabriel Riesnert explores the delicate boundary between domestic space and the natural world. Bathed in soft, diffused light, the scene invites quiet contemplation of an intimate, orderly, and peaceful interior. At the center of the composition, a large decorative wall panel—painted in the style of an Asian screen—brings nature into the enclosed space: flowering branches, delicate foliage, and a serene bird caught mid-song.
Through a subtle play of framing and textures, the artist creates a dialogue between the living plant and its painted counterpart. The open view onto the garden on the left enhances the idea of an outside world breathing in harmony with the indoors.
Both realistic and stylized, the work evokes a modern sense of serenity. A visual meditation on balance, stillness, and the understated beauty of everyday life.
Born in 1970, Gabriel Riesnert lives and works in Paris and south of France.
Since his early age Gabriel Riesnert has been fascinated by the beauty of plant forms and urban architectural lines. His passion pushes him to a practice of painting and drawing between photographic inspiration and urban realism. The artist’s consideration of painting is essentially turned to a representation of what we see and perceive of these forms, whether they provide a fiction or an impression of beauty, of serenity.
Beyond the visual, the creation of a work for Gabriel Riesnert is an interpretive experience and a journey intimately linked to space and time. His paintings often represent spaces and forms that are inspired by the tradition of the natural and architectural landscape. By enlarging details and creating a play of colors and shadows, the painter draws up a quest for the possible and a virgin path in the viewer’s eye.
