Traces

The cycle consists of drawings and paintings. It’s an informal abstraction, an action painting that aims to measures the body along time (through the signs and the glazings it leaves) and space (in the shape of the gesture and in its wideness according to canvas dimension).

The rythm is syncopated, meaning variable and stirred. It proceeds impulsive and irregular, passing from nervous marking to violent erasures, from wide glazings to fragments of emptiness. Tones are mainly minimalist, low grey and black.
