About this artwork
In this drawing, the shape of the mouth unfolds under my strokes not as an organ, but as a living, tactile, almost animal surface. The velvety texture transforms the familiar form into a sensitive presence, both gentle and instinctive.
I am interested in what the forms of the body can reveal beyond their appearance: Here, the mouth is not only read with the eyes; it… is perceived with the body, felt with intuition. Symbolically, the mouth is the link between the inner and outer worlds and also evokes taste, pleasure, intimacy, seduction, speech...
My work seeks to explore those areas where reality and imagination intertwine, where matter becomes sign and form becomes emotion. I don't want to represent the mouth; I want people to feel what it is: fragile, alive, mysterious, organic.

What makes his work unique is its physiological and critical dimension: the drawings reveal points of condensation, pressure zones, and structures on the verge of rupture or formation. Each line translates contraction, torsion, compression, and expansion, exploring the precise moment when matter becomes form.
Between organic, gesture and critical threshold, his works are a space of energy in becoming, fragile and intense, where the internal dynamics of life can be perceived.
