Overflows, packings and gashes


Overflows

Several concepts come to enrich the notion of framed picture and the underlying painting work.  Overflows come in a straight line from paper, fabric or raw canvas collages on the painting itself. They are extensions that add extra meaning, extra material, formless background sometimes, an extension that overflows in space and in time the limits of this frame of painting.

Packing/unpacking/wrapping

The Packing/unpacking/wrapping are a first step of reflection about our consumer society that packs everything, uses only the tastiest and wastes the surplus... packaging around my paintings is a very part of the work, it is not a pollution but an esthetic re-appropriation of the surplus of our consumer society. Ropes and plastics are part of the esthetic of the painting.

Gashes and cuttings

Gashes and cuttings are the next step: to pierce or to tear a part of the painting alters it while revealing what stays behind, adds another dimension to it: depth in the tear, the look is invited to sink into what the painting is not anymore.
