Bruno Metura

Born in Commercy (near Verdun), France of Caribbean parents, (Guadeloupean father and Martinique mother), Métura resided in Lorraine, Germany and Deux-Sevres, France before returning to the West Indies, where his aspiration to live in his original culture was affirmed. Métura entered the regional school of plastic arts of Martinique where he became the holder of a DNSEP and entered the national education system in Guadeloupe. He lived in French Guiana for more than 10 years and in 2006, he returned to Guadeloupe where he established himself as an educator and professional visual artist. His creative will is based on the observation of nature, man and his cosmogony. Through his observation, Métura has the unique ability by creating canvases that search of harmony in a whole, which makes it possible for the viewer to rotate and/or juxtapose the works that he has created. For Métura, the creation in the act of painting, is a journey which allows him to wipe the space. His work transmits the viewer to engage within themselves, to appreciate and recognize, their dimension of men and women.

“Caribéenne is my dance…To paint is to express the reflection of the living, to discern the invisible by the movement, in the movement of the forms and the colors, to learn how to live the harmony by adopting the attitude of diversity of the point of view in the same space, and to understand that the All is already there.”
