ABOUT THE ARTWORK
To alleviate the brutality of death, we often speak of sleep, we say of a man who has just died: "He fell asleep ..." Here, this double portrait of a man and a woman is ambiguous: of the woman, one sees only the bare chest and the hands which entwine the face and the shoulder of the man who rests on his knees: gesture of death vigil or gesture of tender for the sleeping lover? Of the man we almost only see the face with closed eyes, a frozen, marmoreal face. But is it death or is it sleep? The hand and arm at the bottom of the painting are in an unnatural position for a lifeless man ... This painting is a unique piece made in mixed technique on canvas and combining photography, digital composition and acrylic painting (glaze and raised squares). It is framed in a black American box (total dimensions: approximately 32 x 32 x 3.5 cm)

« In the age of digital technologies, I couldn't just be a painter or a photographer. My 'paintographies' bring down borders between techniques and offer a resolutely contemporary hybrid art. » I was born in 1975 in a small town in the French countryside and arrived in Paris in 1992 for my studies (History, English and literature). I have been a professional artist since 2007, with over 80 exhibitions across France and Europe. My artistic approach is both simple and complex. Although my work portrays a figurative aesthetic that favors clarity, it does so through a complex blending of photography, digital art, and acrylic painting. The result is a mixed technique I call ‘paintography’. My compositions highlight the fragility of the human body. I transform my model into virtual sculptures by replacing their skin with mineral materials to represent the passage of time.
