At 48 years old, trained in graphic design and shaped by urban and cultural influences, I have been developing for several years an artistic practice centered on abstract collage.
After a foundation year at the Beaux-Arts in Bayonne, I continued my studies at Axe Sud in Toulouse as a graphic design student. My visual approach naturally gravitated towards the languages of the street, everyday life, and the living world.
My works are composed of raw materials, torn or collected from public space: cultural or activist posters, fragmented typography, packaging cardboard from markets or supermarkets, urban textures, tags, and graffiti created by myself.
Each collage is an organic playground where layers overlap, tears create tension, and strata enter into dialogue. Within this apparent chaos, I seek to establish a silent structure, a sense of movement and connection—as if the eye could wander freely among traces, signs, and graphic accidents.
Through this living visual matter, I explore a hybrid language between typography, abstraction, and urban memory, carried by an instinctive gesture yet always rooted in thoughtful composition.
Today, I continue this artistic exploration with the desire to exhibit more widely, to meet audiences sensitive to these fragments of reality, and to make my practice a lasting form of expression—perhaps even a way to fully live from my art.
Statement
I create abstract collages from fragments of urban life—torn posters, typography, textures, and graffiti. My work transforms raw, everyday materials into layered compositions where chaos meets silent structure. Through this hybrid language of abstraction and urban memory, I explore movement, tension, and connection, inviting the eye to wander freely among traces of the city.
