My first influences were the classics, then I discovered surrealism and symbolism which were a real shock, I had just learned that we could give life to something more intimate, like a painted poem. Represent feelings with a reading grid that I could build.. I was caught up for the upheavals of our world. Nanotechnology, the decryption of DNA, genetically modified organisms came, I do not know how to invade my imagination. I liked to imagine a possible future where humans have merged with nature and the heritage of our biological tinkering. Lately an avatar has imposed itself on me; that of the king owl. It is a hybrid traveler who connects me to this reality. The world that it presents to me has long since ceased to communicate. It is a world of silence where life has become an object. Man has ended up merging with the object by dint of wanting to improve himself.
