For awhile now Charest has been exploring a new way of painting his fruit. He has discovered a new world. He’s working with a painting knife, or spatula, if you prefer. He’s illustrating the same fruit, just differently. It’s now conveyed with more exuberance.
The renderings are perhaps freer, crazier, and even more disconnected from reality... This is fruit as you’ve never seen it, as these depictions are also emerging from his imagination.
