About André Sanchez : André Sanchez is a French visual artist and illustrator working across photography, collage, and graphic design. His practice combines symbolic narratives, baroque elements, and contemporary culture to create hybrid visual compositions. Over the past 15 years, his work has been commissioned by publishing houses, music labels, press groups, and cultural institutions across Europe, the USA, and Australia. He has created visuals for editorial publications, album covers, posters, puzzles, and books, including a complete tarot deck. His visual language explores identity, memory, and imagination through layered imagery and digital craftsmanship. STATEMENT OF ART:Art is a bridge between the visible and the invisible — a way to question, to connect, and to reveal beauty in unexpected places. My practice blends photography, collage, illustration and graphic design into symbolic, poetic images. I call it photographism — a hybrid visual language rooted in mythology, esotericism, baroque aesthetics and pop culture. For me, art is intuition and emotion; design is intention and clarity. I like to explore the space where they meet — creating compositions that are both visually striking and rich in meaning. Each image I create is a doorway to another world, a reflection of inner landscapes. I seek to move the viewer, to awaken memory, emotion, and curiosity. I believe images can carry beauty, mystery, irony and resonance all at once. Ultimately, I see my role as a storyteller and image-weaver — someone who transforms fragments of reality into visual myths for today.
