My vision
My primary objective, through my art, is to provide the viewer with an audiovisual experience. I get this need to make the viewer interact with my works and that he can feel involved when he’s front of them. I also get this need to go beyond the criteria allowing us to judge whether an artwork pleases us or not by putting my art at the service of utility. Indeed, it’s through the interactions made possible within my projects that some of my works are put at the service of a cause. For example, in some of my animal drawings, you can find QR codes that will send you directly to the WWF site of the animal in question so that you can make a donation to this association. As for the overall vision of my art, it’s separated into several drawing series with a theme specific to each. Some of them even come to question the ethics of certain contemporary artistic practices.
My series
Animals
My first series is an animal one. It comes directly in opposition to the achievements of certain contemporary artists. Indeed, during certain performances, artists got practices that go directly against ethics. In 2001, in Bern, Xiao Yu presented a head of a human fetus grafted onto a body of a seagull. In 2007, Guillermo Vargas let a dog die in an art gallery. Yet animals are sentient beings whose lives are as valuable as ours. My works directly oppose atrocities carried out in the past by these artists. It's in particular through animation that I come directly to confront these practices. Indeed, animation allows me to give life to animals (unlike the artists mentioned above) and to put the animal before the act and put it thus, at the center of attention. You can also find on some of my animal drawings a QR code sending you, once scanned, directly on the WWF website in order to make a donation for the animal cause. |

Portraits
My second series is a series of portraits. It brings together several women from different cultures through different color codes which, when they are put together, create a harmonious whole. It’s a way for me to illustrate globalization and the interconnection between the different cultures of our world and finally put everyone on the same level. |

Cities
This series is the longest and most demanding of my series. Each drawing required around 20 hours of work. The aim of this series is to immerse the viewer at the end of the 19th century in symbolic places known to all where the civil engineering of man is fully illustrated. This time travel highlights the architectural and technical evolutions of man over the past few years. But also to raise awareness among spectators of the unrestrained race of Man to innovate continuously, even if it means completely distorting an environment in the space of a century. |

Body
This series aims to illustrate the human anatomy. In my opinion, these are the most technical drawings to make. Indeed, our eye is used to looking at the body of this fact, it's easier to notice possible errors in terms of proportion on these drawings, hence the difficulty of this series. |
