Timothée de Place was born in Paris, France and moved to Los Angeles with his family at the age of five. Living in this bustling city, he has found great inspiration in the urban landscape around him, specifically fascinated by the impressive systems of freeways and byways. They are the metaphorical veins of this on-the-go city. The interesting part is how the man-made structures of freeways interact with the natural world surrounding them. There is a beauty there that Timothée brings to light on canvas.
