Touchon's practice is defined by a meticulous manipulation of typographic fragments, drawn from discarded ephemera and printed matter. By carefully reconstructing these elements into layered, rhythmic compositions, he reveals the nuanced interplay of form and negative space. The resulting works transcend their origins, embodying a subtle dialogue between visual precision and spontaneous gesture.
In Topographic Abstractions, the artist’s paintings invite viewers to reconsider their relationship to language and meaning, engaging them in quiet contemplation of visual order, disintegration, and reconstruction. Through Touchon's approach, the letterforms evolve into abstract entities, highlighting an intricate balance between geometric rigor and lyrical resonance.
