"Les fenêtres".
"Celui qui regarde du dehors à travers une fenêtre ouverte, ne voit jamais autant de choses que celui qui regarde une fenêtre fermée. Il n'est pas d'objet plus profond, plus mystérieux, plus fécond, plus ténébreux, plus éblouissant qu'une fenêtre éclairée d'une chandelle. Ce qu'on peut voir au soleil est toujours moins intéressant que ce qui se passe derrière une vitre. Dans ce trou noir ou lumineux vit la vie, rêve la vie, souffre la vie.
Par delà des vagues de toits, j'aperçois une femme mûre, ridée déjà, pauvre, toujours penchée sur quelque chose, et qui ne sort jamais.
Avec son visage, avec son vêtement, avec son geste, avec presque rien, j'ai refait l'histoire de cette femme, ou plutôt sa légende, et quelquefois je me la raconte à moi-même en pleurant.
Si c'eût été un pauvre vieux homme, j'aurais refait la sienne tout aussi aisément.
Et je me couche, fier d'avoir vécu et souffert dans d'autres que moi-même.
Peut-être me direz-vous: "Es-tu sûr que cette légende soit la vraie? " Qu'importe ce que peut être la réalité placée hors de moi, si elle m'a aidé à vivre, à sentir que je suis et ce que je suis?" Charles BAUDELAIRE - Le Spleen de Paris
Self-taught painter who began to paint in adolescence.
His painting is characterized by a desire to break with the world of appearances and whose proposed works are an invitation to the imagination and come under the 'a rapprochement towards lyrical abstraction.
The successive layers of paint and other mediums reflect a search for interiority and a renunciation of the aesthetics of forms. The starting point of the works is characterized by this inner necessity as described by the painter Vassili Kandinsky. In order to establish a first link with the support, the composition begins in improvisation and chaos and reveals a first layer of irregular materials. It is only as the color overlaps, drying times, transformations, erasures, scrapings, underlinings that the work develops gradually until the search for the point of balance. which will determine the end of the work. In the end, the final work (the one we can see) may just be a misleading image...
