About:

The paintings of Omraam Tatcheda are vulnerable and at the same time they are restless, as if they are still in the process of the making, as if they are moving around on an empty surface.

They are based on the reality, but in a way they are more trying to ‘catch’ the mood that the reality creates. His reality does not have an identity.

Tatcheda is born in Douala, but he studied at the Accademia di belle arti di Bologna and he lives in that Italian city. Does the transparency in his work shows the influence of famous Italian mural paintings?
