“Moving forward" is an expression widely used in modern society, suggesting that everyone must be on the move or risk being relegated, outside of a group, a circle, society... "Revelations" is a painting that offers a positive exploration of this concept, as suggested by the chosen color palette. Here, it is rather a question of paying tribute to the momentum that everyone can feel, when the impulse comes from within rather than from an exogenous constraint, the moving frame reveals also the intention of movement. It's also the chance we give ourselves to let our own universe flourish and reconnect with sensations that are sometimes asleep. With this luminous work, everyone is invited to take a moment of reflection to put their own experiences into perspective.
I also collaborated with the design agency “Vraiment, Vraiment” in order to create a mobile exhibition frame for the exhibition.

Danza ritual" is a painting on the subject of euphoria and its expression in the contemporary world. In particular, the intention is to show the role of dance as a rite of healing, whose importance has been diminished in modern societies but which plays an important role in the lives of some individuals (e.g. festive moments such as techno parties), while it still persists strongly among some indigenous groups, especially in Latin America, where it occupies a sacred place. The paint is applied to the canvas in broad strokes evoking the movements of a person to the rhythm of the music, whether it is electronic or made with traditional instruments. The intention is to show the power of dance, as a moment of catharsis, the expiation of a feeling, an energy or a thought.
This piece was the first in a series of paintings exploring the theme of metamorphosis: that of an individual who would like to get rid of a past that has become too heavy to immerse himself in a new reality. The upward movement and dynamic effect that arises from the abstract strokes evokes a transition to another world, between past and present, between what is no longer and what will exist. Conceived in an oval room with 2 doors (one closed, one open), representing the circle.
The motivation to explore modern places of residence, highlight the lack of space to develop personal and professional relationships, to notice the economic situation and extreme overpopulation of the city, are vital factors in the construction of this concept.
To determine the influence of space in relation to an environment, thus the influence on the psyche of the artist in question is my main objective. In the dynamics of this project's approach, understanding the use of space and its influences is a way to understand modern life that sometimes becomes oppressive for some or gives a new adaptation prism for the human being.
I developed a performance where I decide to live and produce my large artworks in a enclosed space for a month. The creative process, the image and the final results are the accurate sentiment while encountering certain inconviniences of daily life.

Change comes from the creation of new internal roads. Are we ready to discover these new paths or our eyes have already adapted to the old, dimly lit roads?

I was inspired by the initiative, bringing together a number of musicians from around the world who suffer from ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder with or without hyperactivity). The artists create soothing sounds to help people cope with the problems of mental health. I wanted to show with this cover how invisible mental health problems can be.
The ceramic work "La Llave del sistema" depicts a figure nailed to the ground, under the weight of his deformed and oversized limbs. However, the figure straightens up in an attempt to move, with his hand raised to the sky. This piece is a critique of the mechanisms that lead human beings to alienation and the absence of freedom, in a world where everyone is confronted with their own demons. It invites the audience to question the limits of our system and the obstacles that each of us may encounter, while offering a note of hope, materialized by the ascending gesture of the figure depicted, as well as by the green color of the enamel, symbol of rebirth.
