France, 1983

Artistic Statement
"My work moves in various directions, which is why I work in series. This approach allows me not to confine myself to a single technique or palette—I value maintaining a sense of freedom. Each series leads me to another, creating a continuous evolution. However, preparing for solo exhibitions has changed the way I work. While these series form the foundation of my art, I distance myself from them to give each show its own unique meaning.

I primarily use oil paint because I appreciate its texture and the way it retains the brush's imprint. I also work with chalk oil and gesso, repurposing these materials in unconventional ways. While I haven't ruled out experimenting with acrylics in the future, for now, my focus remains on these mediums."
