Bouquet of people: a human story
This series challenges viewers to move beyond their initial perceptions, encouraging them to delve into the layers beneath the surface. It’s a reflection on how our beliefs and perspectives evolve as we discover what lies hidden beneath first impressions. Through these paintings, the idea emerges that people, when joined together, create something greater than the sum of their parts—an intricate, shared beauty.
Crowds: I will never walk twice in the same crowd
The paintings reflect an observation of society where connections are made in passing—brief, powerful, yet impossible to reclaim once they slip away. As the crowd moves together, it forms a collective narrative, a story of humanity bound by the shared experience of time. Yet, as time flows, this same crowd disperses, never to reassemble in the same way, symbolizing the impermanence of human relationships and the relentless progression of time.
Social masks : a story about society and norms
In this series, the artist deconstructs the self-image and this social mask. A deep and quiet force, the human in it's liberation rejects castrating obligations and cries out for freedom and vulnerability.
Outside the box : A dialogue with material
In the series Hors du cadre, Duval puts into words and lines these intimate feelings felt. In a social and personal reflection, the series addresses this moment of transition between what is lived internally and reality.
