The human element is fundamental to my paintings, even when it is absent. My pictures express feelings, action, thought, sentiments, communication, and the development of a situation.
Themes developed: communication, action, purpose, exchange of intention. And this is what I want to come out of a picture.

La représentation de l’élément humain, seul, ou fondu dans la foule, est un point central de mes œuvres. Parfois l’objectif recherché est de dégager les sentiments et l’action humaine dans un environnement, tel que les gares, parfois mis en évidence par l’absence de personnages. Ainsi se crée la perception que les passagers soient partis tous ensemble ou qu’ils soient prêts à revenir.
Le principal thème développé est celui de la communication, thème décliné sous diverses facettes: l’action, l’échange, l’intention d’agir et parfois la violence.
