By glaning here and there left out objects, I undertake an analysis of the sculptural potential of their volumes. Shapes are selected for their immediate identification and their underlyingcommon meaning. These are then manipulated and analyzed. Certain aspects, technical, aesthetic, or poetic, allow to make and undo knots of meaning.It is there that lyrical mechanics take place between materials and what they suggest.

Common place referents (maritime, urban) are attached to these plastic manipulations and are a pretext to stage them. The works play their fragile and unstable positions autonomously. Their fragility is the risky and rickety base where they remain between the walls of the space exhibition. Sculptures, screen printings, and paintings answer by associations of ideas, aesthetic correspondances, creating bridges between flatness and volume, uniqueness and multiplicity. The narrative fragments intercross and weave the imaginary threads of an imperceptible abstract canvas. There lies the indecisive relationship between formal interpretation and its literal translation.
