" My painting is resolutely representational. Journeys worldwide and the photos which I take are the source of my works where we find numerous landscapes. Via diverse pictorial techniques, I try to integrate a strange feeling by diverting certain elements, to create a tension between the esthetic aspect and the disturbing aspect of the work. I also look for a double  reading : the quality of the material and the depth effects interests me just as much as the represented image. My ambitious intention is to capture the attention, to hypnotize the spectator. "
