Chris Alys
His pseudonym is the association of the first letters of his first name and this unique Japanese white flower
(Oxalis or Katabami) which announces a renewal of life. Chris Oxalis then Chris Oxalys to become Chris-Alys.
INVENTIVENESS
I have a natural ability to conceive compositions mixing fiction and reality. I often separate the color from its reference to the object.
I invade the decor with an abundance of writings, signs or symbols.
HONESTY
My sensitivity engages me in the representation of an ideal of perfection.
I seek aesthetic harmony in the ordering of the elements of the composition by the correctness of the forms and the accuracy of the colors.
FREEDOM
I question my desires to express my deep nature in which my only obligation is to respect the rules I have chosen.
I let myself be guided by my passionate curiosity so that the audacity of a layout and the originality of the patterns dictate their laws in each work.
Isis workshop
The name of his workshop refers to:
• the two final letters of the names chosen for his pseudonym,
• in the neighborhood of his childhood whose name was originally Isis,
• and to the French Hellenist, Mario Meunier, translator of Isis and Osiris
and whose birthplace is in a village in the Loire where the artist lived.
