I choose to paint : TheTragic characters serie as a break through my abstract paintings the need to face up to reality to meet "representation".These days as an artist i fell i have to meet in some ways easy to read: "images". It is a little like exorcism...I work from a picture in the newspaper treating it as a potential "model" with its inaccuracy and poor qualities and yet enough formal presence to feed my art of painting. The subject here is a football player during a world cup . He seems to be flying above the ground keeping the ball in control. The dynamic of the movement gives a sense of emergency as if the ball falls he too will fall.He is a "Tragic character". Is the artist not the one entitle to represent its time? The painting has a glossy varnish.

"Dyslexie, dysorthographie, dyscalculie..." was what i used to hear when i was a child, which drove me to a "Libre école Rudolf Steiner" where i had a very good time learning and dealing with drawing, painting, wood working, knitting...in a very genuine way. It was never called :"ART", but who cares ? The topic back then had more to do with the Cosmos, vitality, energetic fields, rythm, grows, states of minds, of evolution, self-control, harmony and balance, elements that i kept in mind as i became an artist. Later, i got a BA and a MA of art from the royal College of Arts and design London (1989) but getting "on the ball" is another story. My first commitment was with sculpture in free open spaces. I moved then to abstract painting bringing this habit of "making things" in the process of painting. Recently i got acquainted to figurative painting for its political aspect, the need to respond in a more concrete way to our troubled times.
