Abstract:
My artistic activity is the testimony of my own experience of the immanence of the self. This intimate identity phenomenon is a form of intuitive and instantaneous thought that passes through the body and touches consciousness. Inspired by the archetypal tree, my approach is inspired by phenomenology because my works are journeys to the limits of our understanding of life. These are open-ings onto the dimension of being that escapes us. Through my approach, I seek a deconstruction of appearances in order to access this reality through the exploration of fractal space. Modern tech-nology and the mobile phone, emblems of our modern societies, are reduced to noble functions of tools revealing a new superior identity.
