I've painted two randomly-spaced vertically-striped walls in my lifetime. One in my first house in 1978, and one in my last, 2023. #interiordesign #interiordesigns #interiordecorating #interiordecorator #interiordecoration #interiordecorations #house #houses #homedesign #homedesigns #paint #wallpaint #wallpainting #art #artwork #wallart #artwall #creative #creativity #pennsylvania #centralpennsylvania #painting #1978 #1970s #twentiethcentury #stripe #stripes #yikesstripes

Color is an international exhibition that has been held annually since 2017. It features photography, painting, video and interactive art, sculpture, and installation works that explore colours and colour-related themes. The exhibition highlights artistic experiments with the expressive and symbolic dimensions of color, showing how color can shape emotions, memories, and cultural meanings.

Three of my pieces are on display in this show in the CICA museum, 196-30, Samdo-ro, Yangchon-eup, Gimpo-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea 10049.

PEARL PATH | CHEMIN DE LA PÉRELLE 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on cradled wood panel
95 x 65 cm | 25.5 x 37.5 inch

This work, named after one of the routes I bike daily to my studio, explores the idea of progress as a quiet, uncertain journey. There’s something precious embedded within the act of moving forward; an accumulation of moments, choices or insights that only reveal their value over time.

LA CHAUME DE L’ÉTANG | 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on stretched canvas
60 x 60 cm | 24 x 24 inch

Drawn from the rhythm of a daily commute, this work reflects on what falls away while trying to grasp a here and now: singular impressions and moving light-shifts fade yet soon reappear in fragments, landscape becomes memory and presence turns into trace.

REBORN REASSURANCE 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on cradled wood panel
95 x 65 cm | 25.5 x 37.5 inch

Trying to embody a forward movement that requires effort, a slow ascent shaped by persistence rather than ease, while exploring the psychological terrain of rebuilding trust or stability, where progress is real but never entirely smooth. It speaks to the resilience found in continuing, even when all ground feels tilted.

ROAMED AND RAMBLED | ERRÉ 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on cradled wood panel
95 x 65 cm | 25.5 x 37.5 inch

This work engages with the idea of dislocation within the familiar, as a reflection on spaces once known that have shifted, faded, or somehow have become unreachable and how meaning can emerge quietly in the wake of what is no longer there.

IN THE WOODS SOMEWHERE 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on stretched canvas
80 x 80 cm | 31,5 x 31,5 inch

This work considers the threshold between inner sensing and external response. It points to the slow unfolding of awareness, when a day—or a thought—gathers form in the stillness before action, the in-between space where recognition begins. This interval often holds a particular tension and is neither fully formed nor entirely abstract.

DERRIÈRE LE VIRAGE 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on cradled wood panel
95 x 65 cm | 25.5 x 37.5 inch

This work aims to evoke a sense of movement into the unknown, where clarity fades and something new begins to take shape. The intention was to capture that in-between moment—part anticipation, part reflection—when the familiar gives way to the uncertain, and the path forward can only be imagined, not yet understood, like a landscape in transition— forms begin to dissolve and light shifts subtly.

I DON'T WANT TO LIVE IN YOUR WORLD ANYMORE 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on stretched canvas
80 x 80 cm | 31,5 x 31,5 inch

At its core, this work reflects a psychological shift: the moment when internal tension is no longer turned inward but redirected outward, toward the structures, norms, or expectations that have shaped one's perception of self and world. It signals not avoidance, but a reallocation of responsibility. To reject a world is not simply to leave it, but to grapple with what remains—attachments, habits of thought, internalised values.

ROOTED | 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on cradled wood panel
95 x 65 cm | 25.5 x 37.5 inch

This work reflects on the quiet shift from inhabiting a space to belonging within it, when the external structure of a house takes on personal meaning—becoming a container for memory, safety, and identity. It explores how attachment forms gradually, through repetition, presence, and emotional investment and speaks to the psychological process of grounding oneself and the often unseen transformation of space into place.

DANS LES COLLINES | 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on cradled wood panel
95 x 65 cm | 25.5 x 37.5 inch

This work sits at the intersection of presence and disappearance and reflects my interest in how landscape can sometimes serve as a metaphor—formed through memory, intuition, and accumulation. My intention with this one was to evoke a quiet complexity, where ambiguity invites reflection and where meaning remains open-ended.

My work in the exhibition 'Dans les collines' that opens today explores the psychological terrain between presence and absence, certainty and doubt. Many of the 17 pieces reflect an ongoing interest in internal conflict—how unresolved emotions, memory, and perception shape our experience of the world and of ourselves. Through layered surfaces, ambiguity in form, and shifts in tone, I aim to create spaces that hold contradiction without needing to resolve it.
The Profanities series, for instance, examines how parts of ourselves that feel difficult or disruptive are often the most revealing. These works question the boundary between vulnerability and visibility, and the emotional cost of being witnessed without true understanding. Other paintings, rooted more in landscape or atmosphere, reflect on movement, transition, and the quiet tension between belonging and dislocation.
Underlying much of the work is a desire to slow down perception—to invite reflection on what is emerging, fading, or quietly persisting beneath the surface. Whether pointing to frustration, renewal, or emotional suspension, each piece traces the shape of experience as it unfolds, never entirely fixed, but always deeply felt.

ENRAPTURED I 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on cradled wood panel
95 x 65 cm | 25.5 x 37.5 inch

This work explores moments of immersion—when thought recedes and experience takes hold. My intention was to reflect on states of absorption that are difficult to articulate but deeply felt. It speaks to a desire to lose oneself, whether in emotion, memory, or sensation, and to the vulnerability that often accompanies such surrender. It is less about depicting that state than creating space for its possibility.

L'ENVIE D'ÊTRE PERSUADÉ | 2025
Acrylic, mixed media and collage on cradled wood panel
95 x 65 cm | 25.5 x 37.5 inch

Capturing a moment where any belief feels both necessary and elusive —an ambivalent longing for resolution— this work reflects a kind of cognitive dissonance where the need for clarity coexists with resistance to certainty. It suggests that belief, in such a moment, is not arrived at through reason alone but through an emotional or existential readiness to relinquish ambiguity. It also points to the human tendency to seek coherence, even when such coherence remains just out of reach.
