Blue pill or pink pill? Painting

After having worked a long time on primitive art, I felt like turning towards more modern images. But I still wanted to put ahead Africa and links between people. Wax (or Dutch Wax, or African wax ) are these colorful printed coton fabrics that are used by african women. The history of this fabric brings people closer. Indeed, though it represents Africa, it was imported from Indonesia by the Dutch around 1830. And, still today, the most popular are designed and manufactured in Holland (" Real Dutch Wax"). But they take their true value when they arrive on African soil and when women (they have the monopoly of marketing and managing all the sales) attribute them a name, a meaning. Like with words, women communicate with the loincloth they choose : "I run faster than my rival", "You go, I go", "My husband is capable of" ... or pay tribute to Nelson Mandela . Generating messages with colors and shapes, What more can ask a painter? In this collection, I create my own fabrics to pass along either personal messages ("I'm fed up"), either universal messages ("Soon, There’ll be a shortage of water").
