Everything begins with a spontaneous movement, the decisive gesture of a blot or a line. An attentive gaze that selects, compares, remembers and intuits guides that gesture. It observes and transforms at the same time, because it is trying to understand something. An impulse that emerges and concentrates what we intuit but do not yet know how to name. What we think shapes the way we look and what we feel changes what we are able to see. I would even add that we see what we see, but also what we have already seen. And everything emerges when the canvas is blank, so all that remains is to let something reach us: an intuition, a memory... and let the hand try what reason does not yet know. The rhythm, direction and intensity of a gesture reveal individuality, a particular disposition towards being in the world. That instinctive brushstroke explains and justifies itself because it contains a personal imprint, something ineffable that embodies the fundamental principle of originality. These landscapes and these portraits are born from a free stroke, which carries the inevitable trace of lived experience. Contrary to what one might expect, they do not seek to capture reality, but merely to approach it before it escapes. They are notes from a moment, small traces of what, for a moment, I thought I saw before me.
