Always in my mind
After traveling and having children, I developed a language based on lines, shapes, solid colors, washes, drips. These compositions might make you think of landscapes or atmospheres, space-time places where you can breathe, arrive and seek to experience a moment of softness perhaps. With large and small formats existing side by side, on canvas, paper, ceramics, fabrics, I occupy the flat, cylindrical, shattered surface. We sometimes think we perceive a figurative form with the occasional graphic dots, folds of the skin, irregular contours of bubbles, scattered foliage, stylized floral motifs, seaweed and furtive sea creatures, a figure in red pants. Random and harmonious, these shapes and colors are however generated by a sense of urgency and an underlying tension. In response to the violence of images that impose themselves on a daily basis, news images or incessant mental images, I seek a refuge as much as an elucidation by deconstructing and recomposing landscapes through these modular structures. More than a resolution, it is a matter of carrying out the investigation on the separation, the link and the control of transitory spaces, and this through an almost automatic form of writing of the thought and the gesture.
