Cabanes
[Cabanes] is a series of paintings in tribute to a ritual from the past: our Sundays' huts in South France countryside.
The childhood huts were life-sized (architectures rather than objects). The model used for my paintings are miniatures, quickly tinkered in a corner of my studio with some branches, scotch, ribbons, pieces of fabric ...
At the time, of course, we had to leave them on the spot. The today miniatures are still as ephemeral*, but I record their images on canvas.
(* The models are very fragile, and designed to last only the time to capture the image)
