Forty years of creativity, thoughts about art, through paintings and sculptures, teacher of visual art, he qualified from Claude Bernard in Paris. He began painting at 17 years old . Born on13th May, 1937, in St Denis, on the Reunion island, he came to France in1959 and after studying mathematics, he fell into art as one falls in love.
Art? What is it ? This question became then and is still a direction in his life.
From 1970 to 1980 he was a cubist, expressionist and constructionist, and after investigating creations and discovereries, he elaborated a hybrid art "samplings". From 1980 to 1990 the objective was to let paintings and styles converse (in a quiet dialogue). Mixed paintings and collage 1990-2000
He creates the Part-Over concept an approach of Concrete Art in whish he represents the life and his life with 2 faces, the two faces of the life Yin and Yang. Interiority and exteriority ...
2012 - I reflected currently in an expression of my protest, of our contemporary society in a manipulation of photographic images or paintings images often performed by myself in the '70s to today ... Photographs made in the form of print on art paper, metal or plexiglass ... new inspiration that allows me to reread my own creation ... at first sight so diverse.
