Writings, drawings and paintings
I always write with a pen first. It’s the close contact of the paper, the intimate feeling between me, my page and my pen that gives me the creative impetus. I need to feel the medium concretely.
When I draw, and do what I call my “un-writing”, it generally comes after I write. As an extension, a wrist movement continuity, becoming a lengthening of my writings. Almost as a consequence.
My drawings are more intimate, because they are closer to my writings. My paintings are more like an objection, a diffidence. I use more colors, more materials. But I feel more free, I feel like I’m really escaping the “writing world” I’m living in.
Because I need to tell stories, to share, to question, my duty as an explorer is to investigate all the possible forms, shapes and colors give me. I combine, I separate, I cut, I gather, I mix, I unitize, I split.. to let the viewer be free to imagine himself what really matters, what really speaks to him. It’s not about me, it’s about the Other, with a capital O.
