Abstract

What I like in abstract art is that I can focus, for my part, essentially on aesthetics, while the viewer can give free rein to interpretation. My job is to balance the colors, yours is to tell a story. Note that you don't have to. I may have put a lot of emotion in painting a picture that will not have other functions to "look good in the living room". It doesn't offend me, even that it feels good, as if the painting finally succeeds in creating a vacuum!

But how well are we able to "empty our head"? Meditate? In the middle of nature? Or in a whirlpool? After an orgasm? How long does it take before we go back to shaking to survive? May the basic anxiety that keeps us alive knock us back? Let the slip take us!

Some of my abstract paintings tend to tense up, introvert, curl up on themselves, giving an impression of claustrophobia. Marbled with labyrinthine compositions that challenge the stability of the gaze, it is difficult to define both the details and the whole. They are real pathogenic states from which it is laborious to extract themselves. Contests of circumstances that surround our life with unbreakable knots and intertwined habits. Our identity is crystallized around our problems, barriers and trauma. Worries tbecomes an aspect of our personality, no longer see them by dint of seeing them too much, drag them for a long time, become attached to them, no longer want to part with them. Fortunately, we manage to escape from the scourge of habit, from the outdated that sticks to the skin, from the tenacious self, which we thought was anchored in our body. By fleeing they reveal more colors. The compositions are simplified, they unorticulate their features and aspire to large peaceful spaces.

It's a bit of all that guides my abstract art! But it's already too many words for what can be expressed with only color and texture.
