Surprises à moi-même

2024

Acrylic medium and paint, pure pigments, charcoal, spray paint, dust, dirt on stretched cotton canvas

But it is actually a series that I started in 2000 when I was in art school experimenting with painting materials.I put the surface (back then it was a wood panel or even a door) on the floor prepare it with wet mediums such as  acrylic binder or rabbit skin glue and then I would gently throw pure pigments, little by little and see how it evolves, letting it dry and/or  adding humidity until I decide this chaos reveals an image that would consist in a mental or geological landscape somehow. That was 25 years ago.
