I am a Brussels-based artist working primarily in engraving, painting and watercolor.

I was born in Brussels in 1966, between the mineral horizons of the Swiss Valais and the wooded softness of the Brussels outskirts. I trained my eye in the grammar and rigor of the image, first at IATA in Namur, then at INSAS in Brussels. I then devoted several years to documentary film, camera on my shoulder. 

Since 2016, I have stepped away from the movement of twenty-four frames per second to devote myself fully to exploring the vibration of line and colour across different supports and techniques. My hypnographs arise from a gesture freed from any figurative intent, yet under no obligation to avoid it. They are a form of automatic writing, a seismograph of the invisible. The monotype, or the added colour, then gives this line a body: transparency, density, tint. It becomes a sensory presence rather than a mere drawing. I favour the square format, which abolishes the horizon and draws energy toward the depths of the composition. It is a territory adrift, made of shadows and interlacings, where reality chooses to slip away.
