From a very young age, drawing, music, and painting have occupied a central place in my life. After studying German literature, musicology, and attending the conservatory, the ups and downs of life have not been able to make me lose the center of gravity that creativity represents for me.
When the line leaves the subject, often bushes, trees, flowers, choreography of leaves, counterpoint, striations of matter, my mind is listening to the vibrations, the hand, a simple instrument groping until a point of fall often located in an unpredictable zone, remaining fragment. The fragment lets us sense or hear silences, showing the importance of this moment which forces memory, after which language can only be born with difficulty in a dialogue with the other. Photography puts my eye in weightlessness, fading before the image, reflecting this omnipresent threshold between life and death.
