FRUIT PUNCH “Still life, you say? On the contrary. Never before have we witnessed subjects with such movement and sensual twists. The shapes, colours, luminosity, and textures lengthen his favourite fruits, change their shapes, and lift them off the canvas. Each of his works conveys raw emotion, cries of tenderness, or moments of pure bliss. For Charest, the integration of form, texture, technique, and style constitutes the source of perpetual
renewal. Gilles Charest works in acrylics to create alluring, large-scale fruit paintings. His work is infused with nuances of light, texture, and warmth.”
