Dans mon travail pictural,actuellement,j'obtiens par la superposition de peinture matte et brillante un jeu de lumières qui accentue l'effet de profondeur,qui révèle la douceur de la teinte,la force de la forme. Sur un fond travaillé,dans un geste spontanée,je laisse couler,quelques fois en épaisseur ,la matière pour donner une dynamique sculpture.Je recherche une transcription simple,épurée,j'évite l'anecdote.

DEBATE ABOUT "THE ROLE OF MUSEUMS" Museums are our new churches,as agreed by many.Millions flock to them to be inspired,or distracted from the times...; *Couldn't museums do a better job at displaying art in a way that fully engages our emotions?* Why can't museums organize their collections in such a way as to convey art's life-enhancing possibilities and even inspire us to become better people?*Can art make you become a better person?*But isn't that taking the "art as religion" line a bit too seriously?*Does it implies that,museums have a social function,even a didactic role to play?*The museums ever soaring visitors proved that museums are already doing a great job? *"ARGUE FOR OR AGAINST THE MOTION": MUSEUMS ARE BAD AT TELLING US WHY ART MATTERS?
