Le graphisme, au fil des ans m’a appris l’équilibre des formes, des mots, des textes et des images dans la page.

Cependant, cette page a ses limites et le besoin est là, de les franchir pour explorer une nouvelle dimension. Le métal s’impose de lui-même, comme une évidence. Derrière cette dureté et cette froideur apparentes se cache un matériau souple, modulable, puissant. Les possibilités sont infinies, inépuisables.

Son approche un peu brutale apporte à celui ou celle qui s’y atèle une joie et une satisfaction immense.

Face à ce nouveau matériau, la quête se poursuit, cherchant l’équilibre des formes, la rencontre des pleins et des vides, du métal brut où la couleur apparaît parfois en petites touches, associé, ponctuellement à la pierre où à d’autres matériau

Statement

Over the years, graphic art has taught me to appreciate the balance between forms, words, texts and pictures on a page.

But this page has limits. Yet it is open to new dimensions. Metal exerts its dimensions by its very being. Hidden within this hard and stiff exterior is a supple, flexible, powerful force. Unlimited possibilities exist. Initially working with metal can feel rigid, almost stark. Working seriously with this material, however, brings joy and immense satisfaction.

With this medium, still new to me, the quest goes on to explore the balance of forms, the point at which full meets empty, where rough metal is juxtaposed to bits of colouring or is associated with stone or other material. Metal then becomes light, supple or stretched, bare.

Sketching out an encounter, suggesting the path to imagination. Refining forms so as to put forth only the essential, in order for the spectator’s eye to discover and build its own image.

Exploring one’s own ideas in the hope that a greater number of viewers will understand.
