Projects: Looking up at the stars, I wondered about our place in the universe, the ephemeral and fleeting nature of our passage on Earth, of us living beings, humans, animals and plants. Our existence is limited to a time, a period, an era. What will remain of it... a trace, a vestige, a fossil. Memory also disappears, and from this vacuum of information, new mythologies are born to tell future civilizations about a past tinged with facts, but above all with legends. Inspired by science fiction, with the dystopian futures of Dan Simmons and Isaac Asimov, video games, with Shigeru Miyamoto' s fantastic universe blending nostalgia, adventure and poetry, and the worlds of Albator and Ulysse 31 that lulled my childhood, I' m part of a surrealist fantasy movement. I create an original aesthetic describing a new temporal dimension. I wanted to create my own mythology based on two axes of representation: The legacy of human civilizations in the future and the temporality of living beings on Earth. Figurative sculpture was the best way to bring this myth to life. It was my encounter with cold porcelain that allowed me to delve deeper into its lightness and finesse. I combine it with wire, resin and cardboard, and enjoy creating my own techniques and mixtures. I work with colors such as rust, verdigris and oxidized metal, reminiscent of the past, but also with black and metallic to add a precious touch to my work.
