PORTFOLIO

“Fantasia” is a body of work that draws inspiration from an American animated segment set to pieces of classical music, based on the 1797 poem “Sorcerer’s apprentice” by Goethe. Just like the apprentice loses control over the enchanted broomsticks, the artist loses control over the paintbrush flow.

Quentin does not forget his first love: oil painting. About art: “I have always been immersed in it, in all its forms, but what touches me the most, what I like to express myself the most is painting. The one with oil, because I find it soft and tender… it vibrates! » he answers us. He even admits to talking to the works in his studio, nestled in the middle of his living room. “I love to imagine that they are talking to each other and transmitting a certain form of energy. » he continues.

The Hearts collection by Quentin Desmit is a powerful exploration of emotion, resilience, and vulnerability through the medium of concrete. Each sculpture is meticulously crafted, using raw concrete to form hearts that symbolize both strength and fragility. These bold, yet delicate pieces evoke a deep connection to human experience, portraying love, passion, and the complexity of the human spirit. With The Hearts, Quentin Desmit invites the viewer to experience the paradox of love’s enduring power and its inherent fragility.
