Artist statement
In my artistic staatement, it is the unknown which attracts me and which propels me into creation. To launch me in the adventure while daring “to be” in order to see concretizing itself what hides in my subconscious gives me an immense pleasure.
This abandonment leads me not to have any precise work method and to use to the maximum my imaginary. On the white canvas, each brushstroke inspires another and a visual dialogue settles between it and me. I go in an intuitive way, even instinctive. My approach is the same as the automatists. Each painting then becomes a beautiful voyage of which I never know the destination. I discover the meaning of a piece only at the end of the process like any regardor in front of one of my paintings.
Sometimes, I take as a starting point my drawings of alive models, sketch or collages or I paint directly from a live model. The medium which I privilege in my explorations is the acrylic resin for its versatility. Indeed, this medium is used as much in pastings as in very fine and dilutes layers and moreover, it answers perfectly my spontaneousness because of the time of quasi non-existent drying. Sometimes I add texture to my canvas or paint such as natural sand, rice paper or gel. I also experience Indian inks and acrylic inks.
If I must find a common denominator to my works, it will be the feeling of freedom that I have and which I want to transmit through gestural spontaneous and an absence of censure.
As a self-taught artist, I take part in various workshops with an aim of improving my art: workshops of alive models to help to collect the essence and workshops/course of creative painting with an aim of using to the maximum my imaginary. But over all, I put this old saying into practice: “Hundred times on the trade, give your work. ” |
