ABOUT THE ARTWORK
When making portraits, the painter is led to question himself on the very subject of his work. In this "classic" process of pictorial representation, it could be difficult to find a model. Francis Bacon explained that he painted many self-portraits at the end of his life because many of his relatives had left him. Playing on these codes, I chose to make a double self-portrait in which this half-fictional, half-real character fits. A dog's head accompanies it, like a faithful and lost companion, and elements of an anatomical mask decorate the faces. The characters are embedded in a colorful and natural setting, and a wooden chair symbolizes the search for simplicity of the posture. Double Selfportrait, 2021, mixed media on canvas, 135 x 100 cm.

If Art has to be the only true form of truth and honesty, then painting is a conversation, a more or less disguised fight. Through the creative process, there’s no other way but to be honest with yourself and the artwork that is being created. Being humble is essential. The creative process is stronger than the painter. The painting itself is ruled by truths that we can’t apprehend. There’s something above that dictates its needs too. The format and the medium do not matter. They vary depending on the intention, because each feeling requires a certain expression. Just like the same colour can mean an infinite number of things, one character exists on different levels and one painting can reveal several dimensions. There’s no right or wrong interpretations of my work. It’s ok not to understand. No one needs to understand. The “why” doesn’t matter. Art should be related to a moment out of time. When everything stands still. It’s every painter’s mission to remind people that Art is something we can’t completely grasp. I don’t plan on defining anything. I don’t expect no specific reaction. Intimacy is the goal, the subject and the language. The move is the key.
