Narcissistic Poodle Drawing

I was born and raised in Marseille, a city in the South of France. I studied at the Marseille School of Fine Arts for 3 years. The concept of confrontation is here all around my work. In a more obvious and visible way, this concept is materially present when I play with the aspect of the painting, the material and the influence of the reflection of the light on it. I confront glossy paint and matt paint to create a contrast, which depend of the direction of the light, and the place from where the person is watching the painting. Sometimes, I clearly use a strong color contrast, as we can see it on my black & white series. I play with the limits between human and animal, which is also source of confrontation. All the characters are situated between human being, animal and monster. Some of them aren't naturally monstruous, but they are in a tense situation which makes them disturbing. Every strange people and animal I meet is for me the biggest source of inspiration I can find.
