About The Artwork

Camille Claudel: "Student and muse of Rodin, the genius sculptor Camille Claudel (1864-1943) met with ephemeral success from 1890. Left by Rodin in 1892, she suffered from the beginning of the twentieth century of psychological instability that broke her career, leading her to poverty and forced internment in 1913. She did not benefit from any care or visits. She died of malnutrition at the age of 68 after 30 years of internment in asylums, and was buried in a mass grave. » "Memento mori: even cathedrals are not eternal." My painting is as much to read as to see. It evokes the reminiscence of being. How to retain what escapes? Can we resign ourselves to oblivion - the very oblivion of famous women who, through their commitment, often their resistance, have marked our history? The title of the series certainly contains part of the answer. It is thus well beyond the mimetic representation of portraits and bodies that I question memory. My painting is posed, in movement, stretched, faded, making any representation appear or disappear. All this gives an expressive dimension maintaining a barely revealed relationship with literature and photography...

My life course has relentlessly imposed evanescence on my mind. The title of this artwork is: "Memento mori: even cathedrals are not eternal." My painting is as much to read as to see. It evokes the reminiscence of being. How to retain what escapes?
