Thanks to Serge Constantin, for whom he was both friend and pupil, and with whom he had the opportunity to work and exchange views over the years, thanks also to his peers whose work he knows well and appreciates, Fabien Cango has developed and asserted his own inimitable style.
Drawing upon everyday life situations, Cango’s oil paintings are methodically constructed: situating, identifying and memorising details from reality, sketching, applying a first layer of paint, then allowing a dream or daydream to determine the form a particular painting will take; that is how this artist composes between real and imaginary.
