ARTISTIC STATEMENT
The leitmotiv of my work lies in the reappropriation of existing images.
Growing up in an era where printed images — magazines, record sleeves, posters — already shaped the collective imagination, I developed a fascination for these staged, codified representations, sometimes sublime, sometimes ridiculous.
My practice is figurative and based on détournement : reordering words, shifting images, altering their original intention to open up new narratives.
Collage becomes a medium for deconstruction and reconstruction of meaning, where bodies, texts and landscapes coexist in new arrangements. Paper remains the core medium, enriched with painting, drawing and mixed media gestures shaped by constraint. Limited resources forged a method based on experimentation, transformation and bricolage, developed over time.
There is no predefined theme. The process guides the form.
Creation is a complex process, and the viewer must be able to grasp a small thread to which they can attach their own perceptions.
Meaning emerges throughout the work — sometimes through contrast, accumulation or paradox, sometimes through a fragile order born from chaos. The posture adopted oscillates between aesthetic research, philosophical inquiry and political détournement.
The work seeks to shift the gaze — between humor, revolt and appeasement — revealing the critical and poetic potential of everyday images.
