Sad moment that the Palace of Versailles closed due to COVID-19! I took up the theme that is dear to me, the one that makes art collide through eras, places, circumstances and characters. Here, an old woman with a hard, indifferent face holds in chains a graceful female figure who might have escaped from a Renaissance painting in a deserted room in the same castle. She wields iher, like a puppet in front of a very beautiful half-naked woman, coming out of a modern fashion magazine, whose face nevertheless seems frozen and sadly marked by the harshness of the times in which we live. Confined and sadly realistic atmosphere ... The collage is made on a radiographic negative

I was born in Le Vigan, small town in the South of France. I studied at the Universty of Montpellier Pharmacy and Medecine. I owe to Marc Dautry, classic engraver and sculptor (Montauban), to have been very early initiated to the field of Art. Later I met the surrealist painter, Bernard Louedin (Trebeurden), and developped a passion for this movement. I live and work now in Haute-Savoie near Annecy (France) and Geneva (Switzerland). At first glance my activity as Dr in medical biology did not predispose me to the practice of collage and photomontage if not my passion for Art,photography, surrealism, specially Man Ray, Dora Maar, Lee Miller, Max Ernst, Magritte and Hannah Hoch. My meeting with Josephine Sacabo, american photographer, was decisive; she introduced me to this art, and incited me to "always shift forward the reality". And this the way each of my collages is inspired by transposing fragments of live, where feelings, fantasies, and personal concerns are mingled. Beyond the resear that each project involves (magazines of art or photography, newspapers, photos, advertisings), beyond the time splent for realizig the work, beyond aesthetic concerns, the final result often emerges from these contengencies, and escape from the original idea, to become another, only remains the sincerity.
