"Inspired by philosophy, anthropology, psychology and the environment, my artistic approach consists of slowing down, grasping, scrutinizing, analyzing, absorbing, deconstructing and reconstructing to better express the beauty and the complexity of life. The acrylic paint hues and tones of my paintings express the emotions linked to my conception of my world view."
