« The attraction for painting is genealogical. »
From the infinitely small to the celestial immensity, Yves explores visual emotions and the respective interactions between man and the cosmos.
Because painting space is not just about representing stars or nebulae. It is about questioning our place in the whole. It is about paying homage to the science that measures and explains genesis and matter, to the man who explores or exploits, to the philosophy that questions, to the passing of time, to the spatial environment.
Painting space is inviting the viewer to become an explorer in turn, not to conquer, but to contemplate and question.
Coming from a scientific background and with experience in the space industry, alongside an affinity for painting, Yves' artistic work is part of this quest, that of making the elusive visible.
