Their words and their silences land on the faces of the models.
The shadow plays with the light in their soul and on the tablecloths. They dream and laugh, cry, laugh and are silent when the wind blows. They know where the youths dug in the wrinkles are when their heart babbles. They are the children of the devil and the gods. Their mad desires are intact.
When night erases the skies from their canvases, they will stroll through parks shaded by the moon.

This text was written in rebound from the painted work, like a song where the painting would be the music and the words would be the lyrics. For several years, these texts have been collected and edited.
The work is part of a "CAFÉS" series which includes 31 canvases as of December 28, 2019. These are genre scenes with an exchange between several characters.
