Artist Statement:
After artistic studies at Paris, I have been painting in various parts of the world for more than 20 years. From my native Champagne to Crete, Limousin to Benin and after ten years in Madagascar, i have been living in the Reunion island where the varied landscapes are a great inspiration.
Through all the shapes and colors existing in nature, i try to decipher the messages, the vibratory language, by using them as a pure mode of expression, beyond the symbolic, beyond what is recognizable as an object, beyond words, beyond what we can see.
Each of my paintings is a representation of the questions I ask myself, doubts and discoveries, a slice of the experience of my feelings, a graphic interrogation of our existence and our essence.
These are snapshots of my soul.
I paint the world as i perceive it in its mystery.
