is born in 1966

The fascinating and strange world that draws Bruno Leduc, is an invitation to a journey, in a hallucinated universe, as if spellbound, where the past comes out of the future making us lose the count of time, space and reality. Our reality.
The fantastic world is the print of Bruno Leduc's imagination which forces him to paint. His work, patiently transformed, sometimes for a couple of months, emanating from his subconscious and revealing his inside, his parallel universe.
Here, a battle from the future where a conventional army faces a warship from another galaxy, there, medieval knights escorting a prisoner, man from times that's been or that is to come are having homeric fighting against monsters or magical creatures. Modern epic, a little of everything from "The Iliad" to "The Odyssy".
Coming directly from the source of imagination, in the limits of sleeping dreams, the work is magic, mystic and esoteric sometimes. For this young autodidact painter, who started to draw at 12, we can, rightly, talk about a gift in the ordinary meaning of the word.
A young talented artist to discover yesterday.... or today
