my statement of work

It's like a forest of the imagination. My experiences of life among some countries make me discover diverse, unexpected and intimate paths. This forest is like a centre of intimacy which I call it "space around the being alive", where I plunged, where I feel strong presence of the being alive who are graciously precious, infinitely emotional.

I wish that this forest, "space around the being alive" became visible in spite of its empty space who is also transparent and abstract. Because it is a space surrounds of the being alive, in which the trace of previous generations binds to breathing as the memory of the body, and crosses the wind in time.
I observed, I draw, I photograph, I filmed, I save it... in the gesture, the dance, the speech, the singing, the noise, and the reflection... also in the shadow which appears to be poor in his dimension, but in which I find a great fluidity... then I have Vertigo.
They are like a represent of the reality, the time spent and the duration. I think the memory of these movements, the memory of the body.

It can be, the contemplation of each moment is simply a passion for life. If this forest becomes significant, then "the forest is a State of the soul" (Gaston Bachelard). I want to continue to walk in this forest to explore this strange feeling of life.
