Looking at the living world before it changes.
Looking at our world before the after. I am not
trying to predict the future but to capture the
present through artworks that imagine the
future.
I feel a deep love for living creatures in all their
forms. And I will always wonder about our
place as human beings on this planet.
In my sculptures, paintings, and drawings, I
always show two worlds at the same time,
juxtaposed and multifaceted worlds. I truly believe in the connections between seemingly unrelated things.
In the exhibition, I present humans in fantasized forms while animals remain in their authentic
image.
We would see things differently if we accepted to consider ourselves as an animal among others.
We would no longer need to change the world. How relaxing !
One thing is for sure: the planet will live long after us !
Because presumably homo sapiens, this upright ape, will set the world on fire. It will mobilise a
mega-technical world, to one day bump our heads into the stars.
The earth, our cradle, will then become our museum.
