Series description and interpretation
Waters
The association between what I see in my painting and what I see right outside my space. Every day, as soon as I get to the studio I fetch the camera that I have mounted on a piece of equipment. Then I go onto the canal side in front of my studio, I put the camera down on the corner of the little wall and I take a photo of the same place. The frame captures the place where the water rises and falls according to the tide. The water that more or less covers the brick wall activates a strong relationship with my “Sedimentations”. The stale water, which remains, which enters and exits from the lagoon rises and falls, rises and falls. It fills and spills over. It empties and reveals.
