About this artwork

The Two Doves belongs to a series born from the aesthetic of backstage Polaroids from 1980s fashion shows, those working images where fashion becomes archive, number, selection. The model's figure appears as an icon: sculptural silhouette, sidelong glance, red lips. The saturated yellow background acts like a permanent flash, a light that reveals everything.

The red dress is constructed from layers of collage and materials, with patterns and textures… that evoke the stylized audacity of haute couture. Around the neck, the white accessory—two simplified doves—functions as a symbol. At once a jewel, a crest, and a graphic talisman, it transforms the portrait into an emblem.

At the bottom of the painting, the handwritten notes "I114 – PE88" (Spring-Summer 1988) replay the codes of the archiving systems of fashion houses, freezing a season, a look, an icon.

A multidisciplinary artist originally from Sète, my work stages reality at the tipping point between fantasy and tension, brilliance and fragility. I compose figures and environments where color, matter, and light reveal what lies beneath the surface. The question of identity runs through all of my work: the feminine, often central, oscillates between power and vulnerability, between social role and inner life. Sometimes everyday objects, bordering on abstraction, become the setting for this tension. The works are constructed through layers of paper, fabric, lace, wood, and found materials, mixed with acrylics, inks, and oil pastels. The contrasts, sometimes reinforced by black and white, establish a direct presence. The LED neon line, when it appears, acts as a luminous fracture: it exposes, underlines, and illuminates. Between figuration and abstraction, I seek a sensitive form that questions what we show and what we do.
