"My hands are used to think and respond to a permanent need to create. For each painting my project is developed in contact with the material and the tool. This one can seem to hesitate at first, the abstraction is an adventure without net. It is for me the only way to express my emotions. To enrich this adventure, it is necessary for me to cyclically change my technique. Without spreading myself too thin, I move forward. Each technique presents challenges that allow me to gradually identify the questioning of memories that is at the heart of all my research. Common or individual memory, memory of the beauty and the chaos of the world, made of emptiness and fullness, of ruptures and continuity, sometimes veiled, sometimes displayed, which is always erased and often recreated. The use of fibres and fabrics currently guides me in this direction.""
