Original artwork description:

This is part of a series I made for an exhibition called Buchillon au Carré, in which the works had to be in a square format, measuring 30 x 30 cm.
I decided to paint a series of Portuguese coffee cups decorated with patterns of Portuguese sidewalks made by Vista Alegre.
I used Daniel Smith PrimaTek pigment. These pigments are made from minerals and granulate beautifully and some leave a sparkly shine on the surface of the paper. I'm not sure if I will be able to show this on the photos.

I'm very proud to say that I got the second place prize at the exhibition!


This is what the jury had to say about them (in French):

En travaillant la nature morte - ou sa métaphore? - dans un registre très contemporain, voire pop, l'effet de série respire. Original. En suspens entre les temporalités, il en dit un peu, mais pas trop. A la fois redondant et pluriel.



I'll send this painting in a reinforced envelope using the French Post with a tracking number
