Remed is the professional alias of Guillaume Alby, a French painter, muralist and multidisciplinary artist born in Paris in 1978 and now based between Madrid and the coastal town of Suances in northern Spain. He discovered painting in 1995 during after-school classes in his childhood city of Lille, where early exposure to the structured geometry of Art Nouveau, the bold colour blocks of Fernand Léger and the rhythmic patterns of North African zellige tile-work fused into a personal visual language that feels both ancient and freshly sprayed.

Working at every scale, from hand-pulled screen prints to building-high facades, Remed builds luminous compositions that merge hard-edge abstraction with stylised human forms. Figures are reduced to almond eyes, elongated limbs and shield-shaped torsos, then set adrift inside radiant fields of cobalt, vermilion and gold leaf that shimmer like sunrise on Mediterranean water. Letters and numbers weave through the compositions, spelling out fragments of poetry or the artist’s mantra “l’art comme remède”, art as remedy, a belief that colour and rhythm can heal urban alienation.

Process is physical and intuitive. Murals begin with charcoal arcs that map the wall’s energy; acrylic and spray paint are layered, sanded and repainted until the surface resembles weathered fresco. Canvas works receive the same archaeological treatment, with metallic pigments flicked across final coats so the image changes under shifting light.

Exhibitions at Varsi Gallery Rome, Colab Gallery Berlin and the Truck Art Project across Spain have sold out, while public paintings rise from Marrakesh alleyways to Miami parking lots, each site absorbing his signature palette and spiritual optimism. Whether rendering a rooftop Madonna or a small talismanic print, Remed invites viewers to step inside chromatic calm, offering paint as prayer and geometry as guidance through contemporary noise.
