Liaison avec le T de Tartempion n’est pas un titre mais c’est le seul que j’ai trouvé, the video

Dans mon atelier en région parisienne, je mêle dans mes peintures les formes, les couleurs à l’espace et au sens pour en faire ressortir la POÉSIE PUNK qui m’anime.

In my studio, close to Paris, in France, and in my paintings, I combine spaces, shapes, colours and meanings to bring out the PUNK POETRY that dwells in me.

If Beale Street Could Talk, DETAILS, Acrylic on MDF, 122cm x 92cm, July 2025.

If Beale Street Could Talk. I truly think that we are also constituted by what we chose for surrounding us. And all have to be carefully chosen because as we are what we eat, we also are what surrounds us. There’s like an in and out in the furniture chosen. On one hand, I choose this thing in my house and on the other, it tells me why every time I look at it. It is said that our animals company look like us. I remember a beautiful work about this by a photographer I don’t remember the name. He or she took photos of dogs and their owners and it was fascinating to notice that there was a real resemblance. To go a step farther, the same could be said for a book, a cloth or a bag.

Oum Kalthoum, Yoko & John, DETAILS, Acrylic on MDF,122cm x 92cm, May 2025

True wealth is not where we come from but what we do with it. 
We are composite and under construction all our lives. Of course we don’t have the same facilities but by building as DIY, we can choose to be a good person and we know what’s wrong and what’s unfair. 
All the strength that we put into building ourselves, we can take a little quantity of it to help this world to go to the opposite direction to the one it is taking. 
Jean-Paul Sartre thought that if one human being is not free, him too. 
We love art. We love life. We are stronger than we think.

I didn’t know what I was looking for but I found it by serendipity, DETAILS, Acrylic on MDF, 122cm x 92cm, April 2025.

I didn’t know what I was … but I found It by serendipity, THE VIDEO

On one hand, I was circling around fabrics since a moment. My previous paintings contained clothes painted.
And on the other hand, I am fascinated by some manufactured techniques like Batik or Shibori, a Japanese technique consisting in twisting the fabric in order to create patterns before dyeing it. You can scroll to the left to admire an exemple of a cloth on which the patterns are unique and cannot be reproduced twice. 

When I have finished the whole painting, beyond what I have found by a succession of errors more resembles serendipity, what surprised me the most is the balance within the unbalanced. Like yin and yang, it’s something possibly to reach out and go beyond.

no U-TURN

It’s all in the color. In French, ultra marine translates into « bleu outremer ». As a teenager, I was as fascinated by the words as the color itself.

A deep blue that doesn’t allow U-Turns. no U-TURN, Acrylic on 3 wooden panels, 123cm x 210cm, June 2023. SOLD

PUNK POETRY

« Nothing beautiful can be summed up », Paul Valéry. The same can be applied to what constitutes a person. Denying it is a boulevard of hatred and rejection. We are constantly changing.

Life is really tough sometimes but don’t be overwhelmed by despair. Imagine a four leaf-clover…visualize its color, its outlines.

This is one of the million exemples of winning strategy you could adopt for much success. In short, put all the chances on your side but above all, if there’s one to remember…NEVER GIVE UP!!!

I wanted to do the portrait of Marilyn Monroe to show that there’s no need to wear a uniform to be. It’s missed for Marilyn, I mean…she was too blue. I was too disappointed. I cut out Marilyn. But I kept one of the other uniform our world produces, the suit and tie. I added the words « work in progress » faintly cut because uniform or not, we are always in progress.

The period when I was a Flamenco dancer was the most intense of my life. I only worked, repeated all the day long, day after day…and the rest of the time, I anesthetized my hurting body with cold sport spray. But when I danced, there were like God whispering in my ears. God whispers, Acrylic on planks of wood, 200cm x 142cm. September 2021.

The lost and found Hand

One of the many things you understand when you began studying the dance of Flamenco is that you must have an extreme consciousness of yourself from head to toe, to keep only the essential and gate away from what interferes. And in the same time, you must be truly aware of what’s going on outside with the music. The only way to succeed is to be here and now. Then, you’re perfectly aligned and the energy runs through you. Here and Now, Acrylic on canvas, 80cm x 80cm. June 2021

Todo es de Color

Being Flamenco dancer was certainly one of the most important thing in my life. Flamenco is a way of being that made echo in me. It’s absolute. The required level is so high that you just have to work hard and hard. Everybody is co dependent. It’s pure essence of life. Todo es de Color, Acrylic on canvas, 100cm x 100cm. May 2021.
