Autrefois, une idylle... (2018) Painting by Fanny Tondeur

Animated by the momentum of spontaneity, my characters take possession of the paintings. Loved by life, they perform in a vortex of bright colors. Exposed on a black background, these electric tones place the protagonists in an environment dominated by contrasts. Armed with their sole will to exist, they assert themselves with audacity, in the most explosive nuances. Emerging from an obscure field, as devoid of belonging to any predefined framework, they present themselves beyond any concept. Out of the shackles. Illustrated in the form of fantastic objects or unreal human figures, subjects take part in their own transformation. They become animated, give birth to themselves and transcend the limits of existence.

Propelled into this dynamic, reinventing their relationship to themselves, and to the world, they create their own adventures. Forge the tools to break the boundaries and awaken the imagination unexpectedly. Enlightened from this angle by the surrealist spirit, far from having the pretension of claiming it in all its aspects, these fabulous beings shape their strangeness from reality.
