It is not difficult to guess that this creation is strongly imbued with symbolism. In this work, we see a mother-to-be. Her face is deliberately in shadow, because I wanted her to represent all mothers who have the gift of life. This gift is symbolised by the candle that the mother-to-be controls in her right hand and as the title of the work indicates, the ray of light coming from the candle becomes this vital influx that finally falls on her round belly. The presence of a character lit only by a candle in a relatively simple setting is reminiscent of the works of Georges de la Tour that I discovered at the age of 11 during an exhibition at the Grand Palais in Paris and which have influenced my work a lot since then. I highlighted this ray of life even more with a visible UV effect using a UV lamp. l'insufflation de la vie par un rayon de lumière ! Il n'est pas difficile de deviner que cette création est fortement imprégnée de symbolisme. Dans cette œuvre, nous voyons une future mère. Son visage est volontairement dans l'ombre, car je voulais qu'elle représente toutes les mères qui ont le don de la vie. Ce don est symbolisé par la bougie que la future maman tient dans sa main droite et comme l'indique le titre de l'œuvre, le rayon de lumière provenant de la bougie devient cet influx vital qui finit par tomber sur son ventre rond. La présence d'un personnage éclairé uniquement par une bougie dans un décor relativement simple n'est pas sans rappeler les œuvres de Georges de la Tour que j'ai découvertes à l'âge de 11 ans lors d'une exposition au Grand Palais à Paris et qui ont beaucoup influencé mon travail depuis. Ce rayon de vie, je l'ai mis encore plus en lumière avec une effet UV visible à l'aide d'une lampe UV.

Art in general has always had a prominent place in my life. I have been drawing, sculpting and playing music since my childhood. I have always had a passion for classical realist painting, especially the clair obscur style, and since 2013 I have been practicing realistic acrylic painting on canvas as an extra-professional activity. My paintings are inspired by photos taken during my travels around the world. My main aspirations can be summed up as follows: to capture a moment of life that has touched me and to convey more or less directly a message, a symbolism, which can sometimes lead to scenes that are part of the imagination. Most of the titles of my works are linked to the message that they transcribe. This message, this meaning of the work can be directly visible on it, or, and this is the particularity of my works, it is literally hidden. I use a UV paint that is not visible in natural light, which I finally apply to my canvas. The hidden meaning can be in written or pictorial form.
