Description

The image presents an imaginary landscape where nature expresses itself with force.
The black line, dense and nervous, draws lush vegetation. Plant forms intertwine to form a rugged relief. Mountain peaks cut the horizon with graphic precision. The contrast between the pure white of the background and the darkness of the line creates a striking visual balance.
The artist uses mixed techniques here to enrich the composition. A circular element, created with the contribution of metal, floats in the sky. This luminous touch brings a dreamlike and precious dimension to the scene. It acts as a distant star, transforming the landscape into a cosmic vision.
This painting from 2015 testifies to a research on matter and light. The precision of the line meets the reflection of the metal. The whole forms a suspended world, between abstraction and figuration. The gaze circulates from the organic details of the ground to the purity of the silver circle.
