My name is Olivier Lamboray and I am a Belgian artist specialized in Belgian surrealism. I have been painting since 1992 and have, to date, had many successful exhibitions in Belgium, UK, Thailand, France and Indonesia
more »’ Painting is my Life ‘... would really defines who I am. My paintings clearly reflect the duality of my love for my Mother-Nation Belgium, its shinny paved streets, trams and atmospheres mixed with the colors, the flowers and women of this paradisiacal island where I live.
It started when I was may be 4 or 5 Y.O. we were living not far from the airport and I was pointing at the planes in the sky, but more especially from the garden of my grand-mother A bit later I tried to imagine where these planes were going, the people inside them, their stories, the sun waiting for them…it was always a holiday, not a business trip…a Happy Thing
Then I started traveling with my parents, 4 continents and 28 countries…more experiences, more openness…
And I went on, by myself, and got lost on an island at the edge of the world... Facing the horizon for many years, the infinity…The reflection of the self… Facing the self. The answers were inside me so I started another journey…. I left my belongings behind and travelled inwards….. More openness, an horizon pushed back to the infinity.
Running the world was not leading anywhere; I was just making circles, turning in rounds Came the time to settle, put down my small suitcase and start the inner travels, no boundaries, no limit, a surreal sight of the self
Going back after being lost, this journey brought me back to my roots, to whom I really am…and like the Paulo Coelho’s Alchimist, it takes a round the globe to realize that what we are looking for, is inside us.
Love is the string that pulled me back from falling at the edge of the world, Love is the strength that carries me every day, Love is the inspiration of the divine secrets, it is the essence of Life
It’s a journey And it’s amazing
This is where I am
