Featured in 100 New York Painters, a survey of contemporary artists, Décéus paints and allows his audience to interpret his meaning though his work is heavy with political and sociological innuendo. This is how he describes the pieces in Revelations which are from his “Pilgrimage from Scattered Points” series. “I have always been interested in events and issues that affect large groups of people simultaneously. The question at the root of the statement is what does it take to change a collective mentality? ... I often wonder if there were no way to differentiate one person from the other, how would we define ourselves, if we were all the same?”
