ARTISTIC APPROACH
My artistic career began in 2008, driven by a deep desire to explore volume and texture. In this evolving journey, I am pleased to present a part of my work from my current collection 2025, titled "Soul Trip." This series embodies an aesthetic exploration where form, in constant metamorphosis, comes to life and allows its essence to unfold freely. It is also the expression of an inner journey, a meditation where each piece reflects a fragment of my emotions, in harmony with the imagination of my mind.

For this journey, the essence of my work is deeply gestural and intuitive, relying on inner impulses that take shape on supports of various sizes according to my expressive needs. I aspire to create fluid and organic compositions, integrating sculptural volumes that transcend the traditional boundaries of painting; using a liberal approach to mixed techniques, I allow the marriage of painting and sculpture, incorporating various high-quality structural mortars and impasto into this process. Mastering this material has enabled me, through practice and time, to reveal the richness and visual dynamism offered by the intersection of these two artistic approaches.
