ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The model for this painting is a newspaper photography from Lady gaga. The writing was about her extraordinary performance as the title role in the remake film of "A star is born". It was a challenge to use this photography as she seems to look through plain glass hit by drops of rain so to speak to paint the "invisible" , the glass itself. Not just a copy, not quite an illustration, as the poor quality of the photography blurred and unprecise printed on this pulp paper has some kind of painterly aspects that speak to the painter.

"Dyslexie, dysorthographie, dyscalculie..." was what i used to hear when i was a child, which drove me to a "Libre école Rudolf Steiner" where i had a very good time learning and dealing with drawing, painting, wood working, knitting...in a very genuine way. It was never called :"ART", but who cares ? The topic back then had more to do with the Cosmos, vitality, energetic fields, rythm, grows, states of minds, of evolution, self-control, harmony and balance, elements that i kept in mind as i became an artist. Later, i got a BA and a MA of art from the royal College of Arts and design London (1989) but getting "on the ball" is another story. My first commitment was with sculpture in free open spaces. I moved then to abstract painting bringing this habit of "making things" in the process of painting. Recently i got acquainted to figurative painting for its political aspect, the need to respond in a more concrete way to our troubled times.
