A committed artist who excels in photography, his artistic work is strongly influenced by his passion for the preservation of the oceans. Travelling the world, he collects marine litter, seeking to raise public awareness of this crucial problem.
As a photographer, he captures the marine litter he collects in an artistic way. His photographs evoke the fragile beauty of these abandoned objects while revealing the devastating impact of pollution on our oceans. Each image tells a story and encourages reflection on our collective responsibility for the environment.
He describes himself as a “tenant” of the land and a world traveller, seeking to pay tribute to the ocean by raising awareness through his works. Through his work Thierry invites us to think about our impact on the oceans and the urgency of maintaining these fragile ecosystems.
Thime, whose real name is Thierry Ménéchal, is an artist originally from Dordogne and currently based in Bordeaux, describes himself as a curious and creative autodidact. After a career as Sales Director in a large international group, he decided to change course to follow his artistic passion.
His artistic career took a turn in July 2015 when he discovered a new pigment-based technique while on vacation in Saint Martin. Inspired by a painter friend, he immersed himself in abstract art, considering this visual language to be the most seductive. Her artistic approach is based on three main axes: the use of pigments for effects and transparency, the use of oil for materials and reliefs, and the exploration of textured materials or linen sheets to cause movement.
He works with a knife, adopting a constant spontaneity in his gestures and movements. His artistic expression reflects his relationship to time, with rapid and obvious movements on some of his canvases.
Inviting everyone to plunge into their own imagination, THIME offers a unique artistic experience where each painting is the result of snapshots capturing doses of pigments, movements of matter, color choices, moods of the day, emotions, and feelings.
Dans un intérieur pensé avec exigence, chaque détail compte. Les matières, les volumes, la lumière… mais rien n’égale la présence d’une œuvre d’art.
