About The Artwork

The Other Art Fair; London March 2023 This painting is part of a series of four paintings shown at the OTHER ART FAIR, LONDON 03-2023 These paintings depict a train journey from New-York city to Washington. I wanted to paint the series like a video: when the scenery goes by in front of your eyes but you don't have time to focus on an image, another one has already taken it's place. I painted the paintings like a video with elements reproduced in the four paintings. The clouds go from one painting to another; the train tracks from paintings 2 and 3 follow the same rule. The painting n°1 depicts a derelict factory in the middle of the New-Jersey landscape. The whole series I want to show is about the real USA, far from the "golden paved street". A real America made of contrasts. The style is impressionist ; the atmosphere is peaceful, yet represents a little boring suburb. It's the reality of a suburban town. A closed factory; poor houses made of wood looking over the train lines. These are the reality of most suburb towns, yesterday full of life with factories and businesses, then the factories closed down, the shops followed suit and the people are abandoned. These series of four paintings is independent but best put together to follow the train journey. Like a video. Acrylic on stretched canvas wooden frame; protected by a brigh acrylic varnish, to enhance the colours. ready to hang on a wall.

French figurative painter known for bold colourful urban landscapes. Member of society of SALON D'AUTOMNE Paris Member of the Taylor Foundation, Paris Feb. 2023 PARIS (salon Les Artistes Français) March 2023 : LONDON :THE OTHER ART FAIR August 2023: TOKYO ART CENTER, JAPAN Born in the outskirts of Paris. I live and work in Paris suburbs. Living in a big city for half my life has influenced my work. I have a fascination for cities: noisy, overwhelming and lively, yet hiding people loneliness. I paint mostly urban landscapes: the interiors (shops, cafe, theatre house) full of details and colourful with very few details for the people: they are just part of the scenery. I’ve worked for the theatre for ten years and that experience gave me a love of colours, of framing my subject a certain way. I’m not looking for the exact repliqua of the reality but for an emotion I want to convey in my paintings through colors. My work is made of lots of layers of acrylic on a canvas, quick rough brush strokes and vivid colours. I use acrylic because it’s a medium that corresponds to my character: I’m impatient and this material suits me for it allows my painting a speed, a raw aspect, sometimes violent; I work in a kind of urgency.
