Cutting of silver photograph (single print in darkroom) glued on Arche paper, acrylic paint mixed with glue and varnish. Work framed in an off-white frame. Superposition of two mats. Unique work. NOT "Homo homi lupus est" said Hobbes. Man is a wolf for man.
What does the human being fear? In his relationship with others, he sometimes loses his reason... in front of the other... the dominant... Even as an adult, he finds his childish instincts and reflexes in an attitude of submission to the authority of a power, transforming every social interaction into a simple transaction between a "parent" and a "child." He obeys orders militarily, blinded by an automatic and daily enslavement. Thinking neither by him nor for him, he becomes a mere tool, a hand for the one who dominates him, in a relationship of domination that suffocates him, steals his time, drives him mad...
Manipulated, reduced to silence like an inert plastic dummy with a blank look or an obedient dog just good at listening to orders. These photographic collages, minimalist and surrealist, sometimes even grotesque, are superimpositions of human souls and emotions facing a situation of domination. They represent both the strength and the suffering of an adult being imprisoned in his childish soul but who fiercely wants to grow up. Will this flamboyant anger represented by the red material get him out of this ordinary slavery? Will the hastily made photographic cut-outs with these irregular contours and drips be quick enough to extricate him from his immature instincts?
