About this artwork
I am developing a pictorial research based on Holobionts (see my biography). This work is part of a series entitled "Coexistence I"; this series explores the relationship of humans to themselves as a coexistence. Approaching the face until it becomes a surface.
The layers of paint record passages, tensions, traces. Identity then appears as a fragile stratification.
All identity is a coexistence.

As a painter, I am developing research in contemporary painting. My creations are part of a pictorial research inspired by the notion of the holobiont, which considers the human being as an ecosystem made up of multiple interactions, human, animal, plant and contextual.
Through my painting, I explore the complexity of these interactions by approaching, for example, the face as a surface traversed by flows, transformations, and coexistences. The pictorial material, worked through layers, slippages, and repetitions, becomes the very site of these interactions.
My painted works thus seek to (1) reveal a presence in motion, where the human appears as a relational organism, open and in perpetual mutation; (2) study the interactions between an organism, its host and its environment; (3) question the relationship of the human to himself, to his fellow humans, to animals, to plants, to microorganisms, in a given environment.
