La toile est
un espace en mouvement que la lumière
et Ia forme animent aux accents d’évocations
mythiques. Ma peinture est une écriture, où
se confondent, sensibles ou intenses, rêves
et perceptions dans une libre architecture de tons translucides et de structures
en suspension.
Mes peintures
naissent aussi d’un
jeu avec Ia matière et Ia fluidité des tissus et des
filets, liés par superpositions.
Synthèse d’une
image entière, suspendue libre, ou la lumière circule inscrivant un jeu de
reflets et d'ombres, de transparence et d'opacité, et prolonge sans limite l'œuvre inscrite dans l'espace.
Le regard se
perd entre le sujet et son
écho,
l’objet
et son double. L’espace
se conjugue au temps pour graver l'empreinte d'une vision
éphémère comme un défi
a l'imaginaire avec, pour issue, l'accord ou le conflit.
