Each oil painting I make is an intimate interpretation of Parisian rooftops, enriched with details such as tags, witnesses of contemporary urban life. But where my approach goes beyond painting alone is in the process of transformation: I crumple the canvas, distorting its surface to give birth to a work in relief. This gesture, both spontaneous and calculated, gives my work a third dimension and blurs the line between painting and sculpture.
