Olivier Reymond

Olivier Reymond is a biologist who lives and works in Switzerland.  During his free time, Olivier looks at the sky where his kites, which feature human faces, look back at him. Each of his kites is made of colored rip-stop nylon with its own appliqué technique. First influenced by the two American artists, Roy Lichtenstein and Patrick Nagel, he has since developed his own style of flying portraits with interesting and expressive faces and eyes. His models are principally taken from comics or advertisements. Olivier Reymond has flown and exhibited his kites for over fifteen years. He has participated in many festivals in Europe, Canada and USA. You may view his kites on his website:
