My approach is both spontaneous and intuitive. It could be defined in two words: intention and abandonment. This approach, which apparently opposes and divides, allows on the contrary the coexistence of action and thought, of order and disorder, of achievements and questioning. This way of proceeding allows me to approach the unknown and the mystery in art. The surprise effect is expected, nothing is less certain than what will come to life. Around some bold strokes, a subjective truth is built. It is through the gesture, the form and the wild line that the imaginary and the unconscious are revealed beyond all pictorial restrictions. To paint as when one writes one's diary, replacing words by forms, colors, scribbles, graffiti and even erasures. To leave a trace, a visual memory of everyday life. Here is the way borrowed to communicate my states of mind. The dreamlike dimension of images has its own vocabulary. To each his own perceptions in the world of appearances; the spectator is invited to create his own scenario. But what happens when the image blurs our bearings? A paradox is communicated to us. In the world of the imagination everything is true and everything is false at the same time... reality still escapes us…
