Sculptural Dialogues
This series is a tribute to sculpture.
Created using natural pigments and precious stones such as lapis lazuli and malachite, these paintings also incorporate, more recently, marble used directly as a pictorial material. This approach creates a poetic connection between the subject and my interpretation: painting marble with marble itself. The result of personal research, this body of work explores ancient materials to give rise to resolutely contemporary art.
These pigments, whose traces can be found from the caves of Lascaux to the frescoes of Ancient Egypt, place each painting within a millennia-old continuity between tradition and creation.

Circa 1900
Influenced by the sepia tones of my early technical explorations, using coffee, cuttlefish ink, and charcoal, I was deeply moved by the visual universe of the Belle Époque.
The elegance of its silhouettes, the poetry of its gestures, and the nostalgia of vintage photographs inspired a series of works that reinterpret this era with emotion.
The earliest traces of this coffee-based painting technique date back to Victor Hugo’s experiments between 1830 and 1870, when he was already using similar processes that blended intuition, material, and imagination.

Temporal Explorations
These paintings explore the meeting point between past, present, and future. They draw inspiration from documented scenes of the early 20th century to capture their historical essence, before diving into an imagined vision of the future. Painting the future with techniques emerging from the past, that is the ambition of this series.
Unbound Works
This selection brings together works that do not belong to my three main series.
Each exists independently, born from an exploration, an impulse, or a moment of open-ended research. While they do not follow a specific thematic thread, they mark essential milestones in the evolution of my artistic practice.
