Personal strategy facing the collective collapse::::::::: An act of faith:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
FAITH aims to be a system including differents plans and medias on the theme of spiritual implication.of emotions : oil on canvas, photo, video, tatoo, sculpture and serigraphy. The work began with a serie of monochromes : words are engraved, marked, made an incision in material as in flesh. Each word is refering to a feeling, a pulsion, to a desire, a prayer, mystical picture evocative of a mantra.
.The tattoo takes over : the body becoming support of the work, lived experience takes the place of the picture. It is in the flesh that is taken back the act to engrave, becoming.ritual, personal initiation, spiritual commitment, every day reminded . The word becomes therapy, generating an energy related to his own message, a wish to turn the body as a tool of reflexion, expression, evolution and redemption.
