ARTISTIC STATEMENT
My creative gesture translates intangible forces into a palpable reality. I shape and solidify the energy of each artwork as an autonomous universe dictated by the inspiration of the present moment.
THE 5 ALCHEMICAL ELEMENTS
The origin of my practice as a painter and visual artist is anchored in a sensory childhood memory. Fascinated by the raw contact with earth, sand, and clay, I modeled structures using my hands and improvised tools.
Today, this primitive impulse guides my creation of abstract and meditative worlds. The observer discovering the artworks contemplates compositions resembling landscapes seen from the sky, offering a true imaginary cartography.
The elaboration of these microcosms rests on a profoundly alchemical approach. The cycle of creation revolves around the integration of five fundamental elements.
Earth expresses itself through the working of ultra-lightweight mortars. It erects the foundation and the structural composition of the painting, forming organic volumes that reach up to 50 millimeters in thickness.
Water intervenes to soften the ridges and facilitate the sculpting of this rugged topography. This fluid element is also embodied in the use of epoxy resin, introduced in direct connection with the architecture of the composition.
Air dictates the crystallization phase, requiring a drying time of a few days to freeze the gesture. This element also represents the free or lightly textured areas of the microcosm, granting a visual breathing space essential to the balance of the artwork.
Fire manifests itself through chromatic intervention. The application of pigmentation, optical interference paints, and gilding breathes life into the form. This warmth symbolizes the salt of existence and the manifestation of abundance.
Quintessence is achieved through the integration of a fine and intuitive calligraphy. These delicate strokes summon the unique history of each creation. This language acts as a guiding thread, connecting the observer's soul to the very essence of the artwork to awaken emotion.
The fusion of these forces gives birth to a tactile and organic surface, where ambient light steps in to sculpt shadows evolving to the rhythm of the day. The completed artwork invites the mind to a serene contemplation.
The integration of this sculptural presence establishes a lasting vibratory and visual harmony, transforming the interior design into a place of grounding and renewal.
