Collage is "art in movement that challenges painting", as Aragon put it.
For me, it's the result of an irrepressible impulse and a vital drive that draws on my personal mythology.
Tearing, crumpling, gluing and folding means writing with images, painting without drawing, inventing a world, 'sticking' to the world.
As a self-taught artist, I've always collected images, using old newspapers, magazines and books from which I draw my models.
I always find the need to compose with 4 elements:


posters or magazine pages that have been torn up, cut up and broken up
graphic backgrounds from the 50s and 60s, with their geometric shapes, colour harmonies and universal aestheticism
women (from the 30s to the 70s)
