About The Artwork
I have a sculptor approach to painting. What do i do with this material which change state from fluidity in a pot to being dry and solid on canvas. What happens in between is what interest me. Through a process i create an image rather than starting from the idea of an image. I trust material and frontality to always enter the field of "representation". So the sheer presence of the painting is often overwhelming because there is no conflict between the medium the technique used and the image it creates. Like an object, real in its own way. The dynamic specter of marks embodied this aspect of a painting that wants to reach beyond the abstract to an illusionistic rendering of reality.Why "ÖTZI" , the oldest cold case in humankind history? Among other things he actually died in a violent manner being hit by an arrow that reached him at the back to end its course slitghtly cutting a vital artery that did cause an haemorrhage. I see the white slash going across the painting as this arrow coming from beyond.

France
"Dyslexie, dysorthographie, dyscalculie..." was what i used to hear when i was a child, which drove me to a "Libre école Rudolf Steiner" where i had a very good time learning and dealing with drawing, painting, wood working, knitting...in a very genuine way. It was never called :"ART", but who cares ? The topic back then had more to do with the Cosmos, vitality, energetic fields, rythm, grows, states of minds, of evolution, self-control, harmony and balance, elements that i kept in mind as i became an artist. Later, i got a BA and a MA of art from the royal College of Arts and design London (1989) but getting "on the ball" is another story. My first commitment was with sculpture in free open spaces. I moved then to abstract painting bringing this habit of "making things" in the process of painting. Recently i got acquainted to figurative painting for its political aspect, the need to respond in a more concrete way to our troubled times.
