Bio
Jossy Mayor is a Luxembourgish-Belgian artist and filmmaker who has been painting for over 30 years. A member of the Association des Artistes Plasticiens du Luxembourg (AAPL), he works from his studio at Verlorenkost.
Mayor’s practice is characterized by a gesture centered on color and movement. His compositions evolve through the layering of lines, forms, and chromatic saturations, navigating the space between abstraction and figuration that invites a sensitive reading.
These works are a witness to the evolution of our world. As digital development moves forward, Mayor explores what it means to be human in a machine age. Through dense layers of color, oil, and acrylic, he maps the modern spirit, a personal testimony of the human side of technology and a record of the new paths we find. This investigation was central to his recent solo exhibition, Fragments Humains (2026), designed to dialogue with large-scale environments through an immersive experience where the paint fully occupies the space.
His work is held in private and institutional collections.
