Silvère JARROSSON

"Immobile dancer, painter in motion"

Born in Paris in 1993, Silvère Jarrosson entered the Paris Opera dance school at the age of 10. In 2011, a serious injury forced him to abandon his dancing career permanently.

Painting then offered the artist another way to create through movement. He developed a body of work inspired by his explorations and technical research, guided by an imagination full of dance steps and choreographies.

In November 2023, one of his works joined the permanent collections of the Paris Opera.

Will be presented at Private Choice 2024: a selection of paintings
