About The Artwork

From an image cut in the newspaper to the canvas - the perception of a printed image of poor quality as a model -how the art of painting in a traditional way gives some kind of pictural account of reality, the reality of this printed piece of paper that we still call a "photography" coupled to the reality of the subject showned this young Afghan woman in sorrow. As you go beyond the pathos within the subject because of your process as an artist, does it still says something about this character? Otherwise it could be a metaphor of this art of painting in this classic manner out of fashion today, an art in sorrow like a forgotten language. This is the first from three paintings painted in oil from the same subject or photography.

"Dyslexie, dysorthographie, dyscalculie..." was what i used to hear when i was a child, which drove me to a "Libre école Rudolf Steiner" where i had a very good time learning and dealing with drawing, painting, wood working, knitting...in a very genuine way. It was never called :"ART", but who cares ? The topic back then had more to do with the Cosmos, vitality, energetic fields, rythm, grows, states of minds, of evolution, self-control, harmony and balance, elements that i kept in mind as i became an artist. Later, i got a BA and a MA of art from the royal College of Arts and design London (1989) but getting "on the ball" is another story. My first commitment was with sculpture in free open spaces. I moved then to abstract painting bringing this habit of "making things" in the process of painting. Recently i got acquainted to figurative painting for its political aspect, the need to respond in a more concrete way to our troubled times.
