Exposition collectif de jeunes et de moins jeunes artistes qui offre un regard différend mais toujours innovant sur le monde
Pourquoi dessines-tu souvent des enfants ?
Très souvent, on me demande pourquoi je peins ou je dessine des enfants.
À mes débuts, je peignais des paysages et surtout des marines, mais avec le temps, je me suis orienté vers ce qui me préoccupe le plus, le devenir des enfants et principalement des enfants malades. Je sais bien que je ne changerai pas leur vie, mais j'aimerais provoquer l'interrogation des gens.
Ma première exposition était consacrée aux enfants des rues.
