Biography
The black color is a call to reliefs, indentations, furrows in dark matter that reveal light and reflections. For it is not the black color itself that is at the center of its work, but the light it reveals: it is therefore a question of accessing a symbolism that goes beyond color, a kind of beyond black. The material for sculpture is at the same time a changing and vibrating immaterial that is constantly changing according to the angle by which it is approached. He needs the relief and the thickness to create. It is the movement that determines the form.
What he is trying to render is the sense of movement. His instinct guides him. His mind is inspired. His hands create. The work of the artist is all in contrast volumes: strength and softness, strength and fragility. By immersing himself in his representation of the suffering animal, the artist evokes in his own way the abuse inflicted on him, he will choose to do it through the image, which through the black color and the reflections it generates, will highlight the animal sacrifice.
The artist shows us in fact, by the choice to deprive them of their eyes, that these animals sacrificed a part of themselves in order to make us react as to their condition, and thus to convince us of the evil that we inflict, and by the same, point the finger at the paradox of our society based on the image. The paradox of the image, the use of the word "reflection" in both senses of the term (the reflection and the thought)
