ANCHORING<\/span><\/h2>\n

Far from the \"white cube\" of my former apartment, I draw my resources from the outside, in this new reality that forms my backdrop. <\/span>
Heir to the latest creation protocol, I exploit sampling by diversifying the collection. It is no longer just about moving handled objects; the approach also involves a puncture of matter, texture, and extracts of landscape atmospheres that I clinically record in a Notebook. <\/span>
The Notebook classifies some of the essentials with which I compose to create a painting that would represent a discovery. <\/span>
Directly inspired by the aesthetics of anatomical waxes, I operate, detach, associate, invert, and hybridize underlying shapes and ideas to produce a motionless central figure, meant for observation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Always in an attempt to marry opposites, I produce the backgrounds on an assembly line, the only remaining memory being that of the samples. <\/span><\/p>\n

The vaporous projection with a building painter's spray gun then forms the comfort of a powdery setting upon which my discovery rests.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
