My work is the source of a narrative dynamic attached to pop culture and surrealism. Just like Russian dolls, my drawings, by telling stories within stories, unfold an absurd universe full of symbolism and references. With my coloured pencils, I tend to stage showy and colourful characters in surrealistic scenes tinged with melancholy and humour. Asian mythology and folklore deeply imbues the roots of my art. The work’s progression rely on a long process of intuition, researches and patience.
Inspiration comes from many differents sources. From what surrounds me (everyday objects, my friends, my family) to cinema, books, magazines. I have a peculiar affinity with comic books, authors such as Chris Ware or Nicole Claveloux demonstrate how you can push the boundaries of drawing and narration always further.
