The Artist

Daniel Blaclard
alias BLACDAN

Born in the heart of the Lot, trained in Reims, settled in Provence.

« I don't paint the beauty of the world, I paint what it hides. »

Daniel Blaclard, alias BLACDAN, painter and sculptor, builds a satirical and surrealist body of work. Between fables, circus, musicians and assembled wood, he questions what the world shows — and what it hides.

From his studio in Fayence, he welcomes visitors by appointment and offers his works for sale.
