On the wire

Self-taught artist, the wire accompanies my works. At first

pictorial, these very quickly give way to the volume that invades the

canvas based on copper and steel wire. I then left the thread of my

works to follow the thread of life and mature various projects from 1990

to 2018: screen printer, graphic designer and technical educator in institute

therapeutic. Ball of threads which for thirty years fed my

imaginary, my know-how and allowed me to tame the

virtual as well as the material.< /p>

In 2013, randomly discovering a loaf of clay, a few

statuettes and decorative objects exhibited in various craft

markets bring me back to my first love, wire, this time

stainless steel. It forms the skeleton on which a sandstone paste rests

. The stainless steel wires emphasize the evanescence of the subjects, their

fragility; the sandstone gives it its strength and its materiality The material finds

all its place. A raku firing pushes them to their limits.

And me in all this? I'm trying to breathe a soul into this Ariadne's thread!

To let my gaze find its way between grace and dread,

among a tangle of uncertainty, finding a fragile balance

through the strength of the sandstone and the suppleness of the wire, which either tame or break

, I am on the wire where everything can change, on the verge of rupture.

Darkness rubs shoulders with rage, a life force, a movement

inspired by the thread that seems to escape from the sculpture.

These childhood heroes, these heroic riders, these acrobats

acrobats who play with their lives have gone through happy and

unhappy times; they haunt my universe and lead you on your

own path to enjoy fleeting grace or to look at your own

innards.

Wires as a balustrade to let yourself be guided, allow time to

look, let your gaze work so as not to forget.
