Expressionist works from Brussels

Discover the Work

Welcome to the gallery of Jérôme Selosse, a Brussels‐based expressionist painter whose work captures the raw energy of the human being. Through oil, pastel and black-stone drawing on paper or linen, each piece is a moment of emotion made visible.

Artistic Univers

Selosse’s work is guided by an intensity of gesture and colour: bold strokes, strong contrasts, corporal forms, and vibrant tones. The aim is to speak to the viewer directly, before thought, through the unfiltered presence of colour and line.
