It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

Accroupi sur un sol nu, un homme contorsionné brandit ses mains comme pour tenir à l’écart de lui.
Sa tête rasée baissée, il porte sur son corps et même dans la pomme de ses mains des marques qu’on pourrait qualifier d’étranges. Sur le sol, posé devant lui, un masque interpelant.
Comment er à côté de cette main géante semblant surgir de la pénombre derrière lui et l’agrippant vigoureusement sans même, qu’il n’essaye de s’en libérer. Et ses marques sur le sol alors ?
Description de l’œuvre
L’ordre et le chaos. Pourquoi ce dernier semble-t-il autant nous attirer ? Pourquoi refusons nous d’accéder à la lumière et nous cachons nous à l’ombre de nos égos démesurés ? Peut-être trouvons nous confortable de ne rien faire ? Quitte à risquer d’échouer autant ne rien faire, pensons-nous parfois subtilement, inconsciemment. POURQUOI ?
Personne n’est parfait, ça on le sait. Nous avons tous nos parts d’ombre et souvent, sans en avoir conscience. Mais parfois, souvent devrais-je dire, nous savons ce qu’il nous faut faire pour accéder à la lumière, et n’en faisons rien. Nous sommes comme maintenus dans les ténèbres par une force, une main dont on ne se débat même plus.
Et à contrario, c’est de la lumière qu’on se tient le plus éloigné, on baisse les yeux devant elle. Et quant à tout hasard on doit lui faire face, c’est en portant un masque d’hypocrisie, de sous-entendus ou autres. Jamais, on ne s’ouvre complètement à elle.
Nous fuyons la lumière et ne cherchons même plus à nous libérer de la poigne de cette main qui nous maintient dans l’ombre. Et, si nous sommes le résultat de tout ce que nous avons fait, alors, sur nos corps, se dessinent des marques indélébiles nous rappelant qui nous avons été.
Toutefois, nous avons la possibilité de choisir qui nous serons, en décidant d’accéder à la lumière.
Born in 1999 in Benin, Aureal Eugénio Koffi Dossou is a talented visual artist who lives and works in his native country. After obtaining a degree in civil engineering in 2020, he decided to devote himself entirely to his ion for drawing, a vocation that he has seriously explored since 2018. Specializing in the use of ballpoint pen on paper, Aureal stands out for his ability to capture facial expressions and convey a rich range of emotions through the looks of his models.
Inspired by the surrealist works of Jono Dry, the depth of Beksinski's creations, the fascinating historical allusions of Julien Sinzogan, and the meticulous techniques of Andrew Tischler, Aureal develops a unique style that combines realism and symbolism. His choice of ballpoint pen as his main medium allows him to fully express his artistic vision, although he remains open to exploring other techniques to create varied atmospheres.
For Aureal, art is not just decorative, but a form of profound communication that aims to convey existential lessons and raise awareness. He sees his work as an exploration of the inner world, a partial reflection of the larger universe, and he continually strives to expand this perspective through his creations. Strongly anchored in the richness of Beninese history and culture, his art becomes a means of paying homage to its heritage while sending universal messages. Aureal Eugénio Dossou, as an artist, seeks to leave a lasting imprint that will speak not only to his contemporaries but also to future generations, using the power of drawing to explore and expand our understanding of the world and ourselves.
