Biography
If I live with passion the great changes of my time linked to fundamental technological developments, I nonetheless remain deeply attached to the original or even primitive meaning of Art.
Through my creations I have the presumption to bring your curious gaze to an emotion that calls out to the human condition, its relationship to space, time and its own mystery.
Each painting is the trophy of a capture of sensations, emotions, reflections which make each moment in itself a complex multi-dimensional infinity.
Depth and light are worked by associating color with materials including fibers which give vibration and constitute a dynamic vascular system. The execution often goes as far as a certain mannerism.
In the end, the canvas and its modest materials become a piece of an elsewhere whose sensuality invites you to get lost in it and then appropriate it.
In all of my production we will undoubtedly find a good number of influences drawn from the history of the Arts, from Prehistory to the present day, with in particular that of Flemish painting of which I use the technique discovered in the 'Ecole Nationale des Beaux Arts and which I redesigned using modern products.
I am undoubtedly indebted to my fascination with the primitive arts; the skins tanned, stretched and painted by the Amerindians, the African masks that I saw dancing, the fetish statues that I saw activate during a decisive part of my youth spent in the region of the "great lakes".
This is especially true for my sculptures made from natural materials worn by time, reworked with mineral inlays to transcend them and make them become another “thing” that captures us and leads us to invisible universes.
But above all, beyond culture and work, my creation results from a gluttonous curiosity and a passionate fraternity with humanity.
