Pascal Lagesse is a self-taught painter based from Mauritius, whose artistic practice spans more than four decades. Inspired by the landscapes, people and cultural heritage of his island home, he has developed a distinctive visual style known as Zafer; a vibrant artistic language characterised by colourful geometric forms, bold outlines and expressive compositions. His work frequently celebrates iconic elements of Mauritian life, from the dodo and dramatic mountain ranges to coastal scenes and everyday moments rooted in local culture.
Influenced by artists such as Vincent van Gogh and Friedensreich Hundertwasser, as well as the rich visual traditions of Aboriginal Australian art, Pascal’s paintings sit at the crossroads of Neo-Expressionism, Pattern Art, Fauvism and Naïve Folk Art. Through his joyful use of colour and unmistakable sense of place, he creates work that feels both deeply personal and universally relatable, exploring themes of belonging, memory and identity.
