About this artwork
Works on animal skin
Materials used: the traditional technique on calfskin, with natural pigments, Indian ink etc ...
I want to capture the disturbing changes, the angst that comes from doubts about the future of the world. To depict these moments of our troubled times, I use drawing. By creating unstable compositions, I try to find a relative harmony. This feeling of imbalance comes from the unforeseen born of the impermanence of things.
The… series presented here is inspired by Chinese landscapes. It shows the changes in China, changes that fill me with unease.
This series can help reflect on this development and anticipate the future of China and perhaps even the future of the world. It also serves as a link between the past and the future, after my childhood in China and my current life in France.

« For me, the artist is a transmitter of perceptions. They should be able to accelerate heartbeats, soothe the spectator and create new sensations. »
