About The Artwork
Sanctity and Male Desire is a new series of paintings exploring the crossing between memory and identity. The series celebrates the physicality and sensuality of the male body and its flesh. As well, it confronts the meanings of the homoerotic fetishism and religion observing the sexual pleasure of our multicultural environment, embracing pop and kitsch culture. This series takes inspiration from the anonymous fashionable well toned male bodies seen in adverts and vintage photography. It also references a certain aspect of homoerotic imagery; I indeed focused in particular on the fascination for men’s muscles and the appropriation of masculine sexual icons. This series of paintings is influenced by catholic iconography from the Renaissance period. The use of Liquid Leaf aims to add an effective metallic finish in order to symbolize purity and to merge both meanings of sacred flesh and sensuality. The pieces are painted in gray tones, using isolated black white and gray hues that contradict the complexity and power of the work. They reinforce the glow glitter background, which flushes out colour in order to highlight their formal structure.

I am a mixed media artist, whose practice includes drawings, paintings, sculptures and prints. My work is inspired by the pop art movement. The use of colorful, glossy materials and chic found objects aims to encapsulate my emotions at different moments in time. With my figurative drawings and paintings, I aim to explore the ideal of life, its celebratory vision and living in the present. In my willingness to express the sentiment of pleasure-seeking, I tend to build sceneries with a particular focus on describing nature and common public actions in random settings, most of my present figurative work is inspired by the human figure in different environments.
