La toile tendue est déjà un objet en soi, alors que la toile libre, le papier, permettent de travailler non seulement sur leur surface, mais aussi avec le matériau lui-même: ce sont des matériaux souples, presque vivants, dont les bords et les limites sont plus flous et permettent une liberté différente. J'essaie de tirer parti au maximum de leurs caractéristiques, telles que leur aspect (transparence, opacité, couleur), leur texture, et leurs propriétés (souplesse/rigidité,
solidité/fragilité, degré de perméabilité...)
The stretched canvas is already an object in and of itself. The unstretched canvas and the paper allow me not only to work on them, but with them: they are soft, organic-like materials. Also their edges and limits are looser and allow another kind of freedom. I try to take advantage of their characteristic at the most: exploring and using their aspect (transparency, opaqueness, colour), their texture, and their properties (supleness/stiffness, sturdiness/fragility, degree of permeability...).
