Break On Through Painting

Growing up in a family of art lovers and intellectuals, I had the privilege of being exposed to prominent French artists from a very young age. Inspired by a deep sense of connection with my ancestral homes, I became passionate about masonry. During the process of house renovation, I began to use materials and tools, which I later transposed into my artistic practice. As a result, I am primarily a brushless painter and often utilize a spatula and plastering tools in my work. I favor natural pigments and safflower oil and incorporate citrus essences to add a new layer of sensorial perception. In an effort to draw attention to the potential environmental dangers faced by our planet, I depict desolate, barren landscapes or imaginary civilizations, after the disappearance of man. I feel a sense of despair about the fate of the Earth, yet I harbor hope that a new cycle of rebirth and regeneration will eventually come forth.
