Artist’s Note

This exhibition and its themes showcase concepts such as chance and its possibilities, as well as the passage of time, because nothing remains still. Life is a big ride!

This work is a book on which I draw when I have a lot of time, mainly during holidays, especially summer holidays. To draw, I like to walk outside, explore, and then settle down. The goal is to translate what I see according to my mindset and the time I have for drawing.

This sketchbook doesn’t depict a particular place, even though it is partly created where I come from, which is in the south of France (Northern Catalonia and Languedoc). It simply captures places I have drawn and will draw because it is not finished yet!

I consider this book both an endpoint and a journey. Transcribing reality in this way allows me to think broadly, progress in this medium, and gather raw material for the pictures and projects I will produce in the studio.
