After several training in oil painting and academic drawing in Geneva, London and Zurich, I invested four years of part-time study in visual arts (2016-2020) along my job as a journalist, as well as two years individual work for my diploma project. It is at the Visual Art School Basel that I was confronted with and fascinated by contemporary abstract painting.
Like music, abstract art does not seek to represent, but to arouse pure emotion, always renewed, never fixed. My work is certainly influenced not only by Kandinsky's inner necessity but also by the ancient Japanese concepts of wabi-sabi, or at least as I interpret them. According to Leonard Koren, "the quintessence of Japanese aesthetics [...] the beauty of imperfect, impermanent and incomplete things."
Drawing on my own multicultural references and emotions, my artistic approach has found its vocation in this quest for the imperfect, the impermanent and the incomplete.
