Co-creation with the Finnish Designer Markku Piri using the process of the “Cadavre exquis” developed by the Dada movement in France in the beginning of the XXeme century. The work has been exhibited in france and Finland.
Technic : oil pencil on paper.
Work created during my long journey in Finland.
Technic : china ink, acrylic, flour glue and recycled paper.
Work created when I was living with the Turkana tribe in the north of Kenya. This work is a reaction against the cold and objective representation of our planet depicted by Google Earth and the voyeuristic images from satellites and security cameras that invades us. I replaced the pixel by the grain of earth directly taken from the ground and painted on it the people I was living with.
this work is a self-portrait through the intermediary of a bird: a representation of the bird`s mental picture that examines the inner psyche of the human being. As a bird takes flight and its eyes wander without territories or borders, the travel unearths a discriminating purity of impressions. These works are icons that interrogate the place of humankind.
Technic : china ink, acrylic, flour glue and recycled paper.
1. Series "Mechanics of the forgotten” (in french "macanique de l'oubli") : work in progress. this work materializes my attempt to digest horrific pictures and videos of beheadings that the mexican mafia put on line.
One scene in particular stay in my mind. Fron this scene, a couple of pictures began to pollute me. Kind of Icones of obscenety, insanety and horror; degrading human being in my eyes.
Through this body of work I try to transform my memory of this scene in order to live with it and to accept this reality. With this couple of pictures as a starting point, I "re -visit"This scene and try to re-humanise this lady work after work. I let the time passing on my first impression and play a strange game with my memory of it. I posted it from the most recent to the oldest one with the 2/3 pictures of the real scene that inspirate this series at the end.
