"Escape" Painting

1961 La Rochelle, French , Painter nicely schizophrene,

What was your first contact with art?
As an only child, boredom forced me to be creative from childhood. With characters cut out of mail order catalogs, I created mini sets and plays at the age of 7. I always loved to embellish life, decorate my school notebooks, paint on my teenage walls.
Artist: I didn't dare to become one at the age when you choose your destiny, it took me years to let myself go. But my experiences nourished my art until it was time for me to take the plunge. In a first step, I created decorated house signs for individuals. Ceramics and enamel are rigorous disciplines. Then I designed sets for series. I
added to my palette the creation of catalogs, exhibition stands, etc. Until the day when, tired of creating for
others, I wanted to listen to my own delusions, live from my
true passion and I set up my painting studio in 2010.

Are there key themes, messages or theories hidden
in your work?
Escape from everyday life, freedom. Georges is my avatar:
a polymorphic being, he is "I", he is "we". He says for me
the torments, the questions and the joys of life. We
never see his face, it is in a way to protect
his anonymity.
When he appeared to me in a fleeting image of my mind,
he was pedaling on a small bicycle with the headwind. He
became a recurring character in my painting. Since then he has
often taken flight, climbing ladders, clinging to clouds, umbrellas, seeking in the
airs an emancipation too rare on the ground.
Rising waters are another subject I explore, a
current topic. When the water rises and forces us to live
differently. I enjoy imagining a life of cohabitation,
perched on houses with a precarious balance.
I like the idea of ​​a mosaic world where everything is superimposed
in my Klan series. A kind of comic strip where everything is
mixed, the stories intersect and link in the same
emotion. My life is a mosaic of days that follow one another
without being alike. My life is Klan.
In the series "Double JE" I confuse love with
sisterhood, twinship, and sometimes even the strangeness of Siamese
twins that fascinate me. The complex relationships between bodies that
love each other, hearts that seek each other. If gold is often present, it is
because Love is a serious and precious matter.
In Pocassé, bodies complement each other. Give me your
mouth and I will give you the floor. Give me your eye and I will
look at you.
