Artistic Approach and Major Themes of My Visual Poetic Works
My artistic approach is characterized by a fusion between fragmentary poetic writing and visual arts, creating a dialogue between text and image that transcends traditional boundaries of artistic expression.
Creative Approach
Fragmentation and non-linearity: I work with autonomous poetic fragments that, together, form a mosaic of experiences and perceptions. This approach allows the reader/viewer to navigate freely through the work and create their own sensory journey.
Symbolism and surrealism: My creation is part of a surrealist tradition where mental images, often dreamlike, unfold in a space where the boundary between real and imaginary becomes porous. Objects, characters, and landscapes metamorphose, creating powerful mental tableaus.
Transfiguration of reality: I seek to "colorize and transfigure elementary particles into strange objects devoid of meaning obligation." Art becomes a tool to "freeze the possibilities of eternity," revealing what usually escapes ordinary perception.
Art as organic collision: I conceive art as born "from the interaction between the possible and the real." In this "organic collision," symbolism emerges, allowing nothingness to take form and "invisible forces" to manifest.
Major Themes
The night and its mysteries: My texts frequently explore the nocturnal universe, this space-time where perceptions alter and where truths invisible to daylight emerge. Night appears as a realm in its own right, with its "music of shadow" and its "grain of remarkable softness."
Memory and temporality: The question of memory, its persistence and erasure constitutes a common thread in my work. Fragments titled "Shadow from the past" or "Do you remember" question our relationship to the past and our ability to retain what disappears.
Existence and non-being: My texts question the very foundations of being and non-being. This philosophical exploration manifests in fragments like "Ich Bin" where I ask: "Is the fact of thinking of not knowing what it is to not be, sufficient to define NON-EXISTENCE?"
Love, passion, and loss: Intense human relationships, particularly romantic ones, are depicted in their splendor and fragility. Stories like those of "MP+S" or "Céline" testify to the transformative power of encounters and the pain of their end.
Body and consciousness: Bodily experience, physical sensations, and their connection to consciousness are explored in both concrete and metaphysical dimensions. Texts like "Last Breathe" meticulously describe the carnal experience as a gateway to altered states of consciousness.
Art and creation: The figure of the artist and the creative process appear as meta-poetic subjects. The fragment "Medusa" portrays an artist who, faced with blindness, must reinvent her relationship to creation, illustrating how art can transcend physical limitations.
Melancholy and solitude: Existential solitude and melancholy run through the entire work, sometimes evoking that "whale that emits songs at the frequency of 52 hertz" that no one can hear, a powerful metaphor for incommunicability.
These poetic texts, once put into images on Art Majeur, will create a dialogue between word and visual, inviting the viewer to a complete sensory and intellectual experience, at the border between dream and reality, between existence and transcendence.
