"Painting and drawing constitute a privileged means for experiencing the tangible world, for being able to "see." My pictorial approach finds its origins in the ever-renewed need to experience this particular presence in the world. I most often use a palette of ochres, earths, and ultramarine blues, declined in a range of restrained tones, always striving to preserve a living and luminous material. It seems to me that it is the slow vibration of these colored grays that can best translate the universe of sensations and emotions that I have approached and that I seek to render on canvas. Carried by a movement that oscillates between intention and detachment, the painting is developed in layers: coverings, erasures, impulses, and renunciations gradually construct a singular and sensitive space where each person can rediscover a part of themselves. An intimate resonance that is both distant and familiar, each of these paintings bears witness to a moment of presence in the world."
