A lifelong artist, I devoted my early years to drawing, particularly comics, before discovering oil painting in my twenties, a technique I learned inspired by the Impressionist and Surrealist masters.
Then came the creation of blobys composed of natural materials such as wood, stone, and bones collected during nature walks, to which recycled industrial materials such as metal, electronic components, washers, bolts, etc. were quickly added.
For several years now, I have devoted myself fully to creative assembly and upcycling.
Diverted from their original function, everyday objects and machines, disassembled, sorted, and then reassembled, take shape, hybridize, complement each other, combine, concentrate, come to life, and light up, giving life to unique decorative and poetic works.
Raw materials are abundant and virtually free: everything we no longer throw away, everything we can glean from a garage sale, a recycling center, or one of our closets where we no longer need anything. Processed minimally, or as little as possible, the materials are enhanced, complementing each other in their shapes and forms, which create their unexpected aesthetic.
Active degrowth, as opposed to polluting overconsumption and throwaway thinking, is an extraordinary playground, with infinite combinations, limited only by our creativity.
