Original artwork description:

Untitled [220323]

Original acrylic painting on stretched canvas.

My artistic practice is developed around several notions and questions : the dialectic of the figure and the background, the work in reserve, the silhouette and the backlight, the organic, the concave/convex, full/empty ambivalences.

My first ambition is to develop strange, singular, ambiguous images, having a strong graphic and chromatic presence, a real evocative power, but whose pictorial technique of ascent to the form would double this strangeness. Indeed, my paintings proceed from a reversal of the traditional construction procedure, and a questioning of the classic relationship between form and background. It is a matter of creating a contradiction between the relief of the lower layer, which suggests a certain image, and the solid outline of the upper layer, which contradicts the expected silhouette, pierces the evoked volume, destabilizes the figuration.
