English: I define myself as an African artist whose incessant peregrinations always bring something new to my work. The meanders of the cities combine with my paintings on which I express myself as a traveler in perpetual search for colors.

My paintings are the assembly of objects of various origins; each piece is part of a whole, elements of a game, which can come together, juxtaposed. Acrylic paint, oil pastel and coffee are my artistic instruments of choice. I believe that what is inside is reflected on the outside. That's why I'm attracted to human faces., skin tones and texture .My job is an attempt to grasp the peculiarities that make a person faceless anonymous ,Although all of them were inspired by real life. My style of execution can be very abstract as figurative, but the construction, and deconstruction are part of the same energy that I try to master. By this I always try to inject a form of dreaminess to my paintings.

I repeat my signs and my words in my works, for I am part of the world and the proof of a reality sometimes repressed. Yes I defy time because I believe that I succeeded in immortalizing the simplest things to the most complex. "Traces".
