Please be seated, thank you. Take all the time you need, painting after painting. Don't try to look at several at the same time : they will interfere and destroy each other. Let come to you. Try to establish a mental dialogue with the painting, this will stimulate and expand your consciousness. Make it your personal adventure, the exploration of a universe still unknown. Don't let anything disturb your attention. Don't let any other information pollute this communication, in particular how others feel about the work, what "specialists" would say about it, in what school of thought people would classify it and rank it. Make it an act of sincerity and authenticity with ... yourself. Yes, it's an effort, but it's such a good way of sharing a universe, among us.
If you want to know what my intentions are in painting, it's extremely simple : I strive to create beauty, for people of goodwill to watch, in all humility, period.
If you wish, you may try to put these paintings with any of their sides uppermost : it will work for some of them, but not for all. This will be your choice. Don't try to guess the dimensions of these paintings : from the size of a post stamp to that of a universe, it will also be your choice. That's the beginning of a strange relationship with beauty.
I hope you'll enjoy it.
But please, no money, no glory, just a pure, simple, honest, human relationship through art. Yes ?
Beauty is the end in itself of the artist’s activity. It is also the pertinence criterion for a scientific theory, the means by which the scientist will support the advancement of humankind.. Consequently, beauty would appear to be the simmetry axis betwen art and science, both the means and the end, the supreme criterion, hence, for Man, in his participation to beauty, the reason for being of our universe. Why ?
Isn’t the universe itself a model of beauty ?
Then why go against such a model ?
In view of the fact that our universe, in its wholeness, is becoming more and more mental, and of the amount of work done in various international meetings on “ Spirituality, Art and Science ”, we could perhaps help each other participate in a common creation. I have noticed that my paintings seem to incite people to write : this is the reason why I am looking for scholars who would find that my work is complementary to theirs, in the domains of spirituality, art and science.
