“If you do not know where you are going, take the road you do not know.
— Saint Augustin
Marks or scribbles form the first sketch of every work, and I keep improvising in this way until the end.
Yet once finished, the work must be beautiful and, if possible, well made.
I therefore remain within an abstract language that rejects figuration as well as the formulation of a message, narrative, testimony or cause to defend.
Where does this lead me? Impossible to say, but certainly somewhere, because I cannot remake past works.
