Constantin Roucault
Constantin, born in 1984, is a contemporary artist from the canton of Fribourg. After completing his Master of Law (MLaw) at the University of Fribourg in 2011, he initially pursued an academic career in the field of law. However, over time, his focus gradually shifted towards the visual arts.
Through various workshops and private art courses, he deepened his artistic skills, refined his drawing techniques, and expanded his artistic approach. Oil paint became his preferred medium—chosen for its vibrant color palette, depth, and its ability to establish an emotional connection with the audience.
Occasionally, Constantin incorporates additional techniques such as acrylic, ink, charcoal, collage, and screen printing, enriching his works with diverse textures and layers.
Constantin’s body of work has evolved into different series, each exploring its own themes and stylistic approaches. These reflect his ongoing artistic engagement and development.
In his art, Constantin explores the tension between the human-made world and nature—both in their contrasts and in their harmony. Some of his urban motifs, with graphic lines and imaginative elements, add a playful touch to cityscapes. In his abstract works, he examines the energy and movement of waves, inspired by the power of nature. Other pieces resemble a narrative journey full of hidden truths—a labyrinth of mirrors, where each viewer is confronted with their own desires, fears, and emotions.
