"If Jean-Luc Lacroix makes a big noise by wielding shears and forge, he invests painting to shape the colours in the manner of his inner world. His paintings expose the eye of the observer to a primitive system where the clarity of the beings opposed the immutability of a rebellious nature. And always, his evanescent women or illusory notables that materialize themselves in a white aura. They symbolize the virginal purity of a wandering soul in an inhospitable environment. Never, the expression on their faces will be unveiled. Only the posture of their long slender silhouette hints the nature of their emotions. (…)” (Louise Cazals, writer - ‘L’Âme de travers’)Through painting, he has developed a keen sense of colors and matters with a special passion for abstraction — “a thrilling path towards inner cleansing”, he said.
