Catalogue Note

Ces peintures veulent […] figurer les spectacles qui se présentent à nos yeux mais dans une forme très généralisée, au point que s’y voient indifférenciés le grand et le petit, les corps et les vides et toutes anecdotiques spécificités, pour finalement évoquer indifféremment tout spectacle, toute prise quelconque dans le spectacle continu que le monde nous offre.
