ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The painting represents a scene showing a group of rats in a small space in which is arranged on the left a work of art partially wrapped in a bubble pack. One of the rats has taken a seat on the wrapping cord to better admire the work. His fellow rats are going about their business and two of them are intrigued respectively by a one-euro coin and a two-euro coin. A shelf in the background of the painting is the support of an open laptop which presents on the screen a spreadsheet with indications of quotations. Under the tablet, a server in activity in connection with the universal network allows to automate the operations. The partially unveiled work presents the work described and puts in abyme this singular scene. The composition of this painting highlights a perspective in connection with the symbolism of the network. The bonhomie of these small rodents bring a dimension as intriguing as crisp to a staged offbeat. The pictorial technique of this work is resumed in acrylic from a preliminary sketch.

Look, observe, feel and imagine, as if to better perceive things in life and everyday life. The artist from an architectural universe never stops understanding and allowing himself to be seduced by the human journey in given spaces with this alternation of place and posture. The simplicity of a pose that becomes complicit in a space or a space that sublimates the presence of a passage. Like a love story, a particular attitude or a body whose meanings are sometimes unknown. Interpret, script, as if to better define fields of the possible between interior and exterior. This dimension which challenges the inside and the outside, the self and the others, order and disorder, fullness and emptiness or even image and history. These opposites that leave marks and determine how we perceive them. The artist plays with the decor, blurring it as well as sublimating it. Presence or absence as if to give free rein to the imagination of a short one-act story or a three-part triptych. This figurative waltz is enriched by the sketch of a stolen moment, sometimes supported by symbolic graphics that redefine the limits of these opposites to reveal a distinctive evidence. Like an exacerbated passion, the composition is an integral part of his work and complicit in making the subject live in its medium by involving it in its format. Like unfinished lace, between classicism and timelessness, we are invited to appropriate living spaces linked to our walks.
