Born: France; December 23, 1957
Resides: France
My work is the expression of a personal world that emerges to reality as fluid and colored forms suddenly fixed in the glass. Flows, waves, streams, nets, archaic forms, come to me from a remote and deep space and create a new microcosm within the glass.
The fluidity of each of these forms incessantly overflows my imagination.
Movement and metamorphosis, there exists in this a mystical idea of fusion that calls out for ‘meeting’, for communion, as well as for an aptitude for change and for mobility.
