Collection 2020 - 2026
A vibrant dialogue between urban geometry and pure abstraction, where structure meets emotion.
There are those who travel the world to do business. And then there are those who travel the world to see - to truly see. Laurent Schwarz does both, but it is the latter that nourishes everything else.
An IoT and RFID entrepreneur, he connects objects across three continents. Marrakech, Dakar, Lomé, Cotonou, Brazzaville, Antananarivo - Africa and its faces, its colors, its markets overflowing with life. Paris, Milan, Munich, Brussels, Helsinki, Krakow, Tallinn, Budapest - Europe and its lights, its winters, its architectures that tell the story of mankind. Switzerland - Geneva, Lausanne, Montreux, Vevey, Lugano - a country of precision and silence inhabited by quiet beauty.
But what sets Laurent Schwarz apart from a simple business traveler is the depth of his perception. A practitioner of NLP and a fervent advocate of emotional intelligence, he does not merely observe - he feels. He captures the emotions of a room, reads the unspoken words of an encounter, perceives beauty where others see the ordinary. A face in a Marrakech souk. The silent dignity of an old man in Budapest. The boisterous joy of a market in Lomé. Animals, nature, the morning light on Lake Geneva - everything touches him, everything inspires him, everything enriches him.
Entirely self-taught in painting - no school, no master, no inherited method. Just hands, eyes, and everything he has absorbed from the living world.
