About this artwork
My painting is built up less by addition than by layering, removal and abrasion.
The successive layers of earth, white and pink are worked, then partially erased, scraped or crossed, revealing fragments of the earlier states.
The surface thus retains the memory of the gesture
Some areas are reworked to produce a dry, grainy texture, while others remain more fluid, alternating between… opacity and transparency.
tension between control and accident
Painting thus becomes a kind of memory of its own transformations.

After years of geometric abstraction, I let myself slide towards lyrical abstraction.
Here too, the colours and the materials have become entwined, I would say, loved, to hide and rediscover themselves, to express their intimacy to us, revealed by the light of day.
These assembled colors offer me an infinite research associating randomness and reflection.
