Well before I made my way towards a professional formation for shows management and artists manager, I had this visceral love for arts and creators from all eras and types. Whether through my experiences in writing, management, administration, painter, model, theatre, artists representative, producer/director and exhibit commissioner, I only seek to elate this passion in me in order to create a constructive work.
In my paintings, the looks are so important that people often tell me that they make them feel ill-at-ease or that they talk to those who look at them carefully. If a picture is worth a thousand words, a look can recount a whole life just by itself. That is what I look to do. The observer must be able to understand the essence of the work through the eyes of my characters. After all, is it not true that the saying goes the eyes mirror the soul?
The complexity of human nature and the sibylline aspect of the universe are great sources of inspiration that I often attempt to render with a touch of eroticism. This way, I aspire to achieve the stripping down of a soul by putting aside all superficial flourishes that would made cumbersome what I desire to transmit. To give the desire to connect to the infinite, to the essential, that is what seems to lead my artistic approach.
It is impossible to imagine life without art and art without life. From prehistoric times until now, mankind as needed creation’s beauties and joys for the health of his mind just as he needs water and air to live. Thus, it is with delight that I invite you to keep up with the progression of the artists from the gallery. As well as the one of those who will join us soon.
I Hope you will have an enjoyable moment!
