For decades painting has been said to be dead.

Let’s share its remains!

Every time I paint, I don’t know why, but there is this feeling of oblivion.

I have forgotten everything I have learnt, seen, heard. I just don’t know anymore.

Let’s take a simple situation: everything will do as “Motiv”, as subject, seeing that it’s worked through. Only one figure, always the same person?

To paint this human figure, again and again, this is somehow worthwhile even knowing that painting is well and truly dead.

Do I paint without believing in painting? I only know that painting must be punched and kicked, otherwise it will become a fossil. I don’t pretend to create “new” images because I think new images don’t exist.

If this “old lady-painting” is dead, she should rest in peace but let us paint!

I don’t want to show a story. I want to impose an image.

I paint. One day, I’ll tell you why. Ciao!
