"When I paint, I give myself limits ... Either I launch myself into constraints. When I paint, I free myself ... Either I start without anything definite, where everything is possible.”

My art is composed of spontaneous painting, I let myself be carried away by the form, the colors, the lines that emerge. Sometimes constraint comes because at a given moment I am looking for the balances of light, of forms, of construction. I practice letting go and astonishment. There is something in my two ways of painting that transcends me and I can offer this to the world. A lot of thoughts go through me when I paint. I could say then that the paintings I create are like “thought-pictures”: I deposit thoughts in shapes, lines and colors constructions of thoughts. There is a real exploration of my emotions, feelings, my culture, my beliefs to transfigure them. It is a path between my inner world and the outer world: the gateway is the work of art.
