"Within the improvisation and the gesture, the quickness and the imperfection to go off on the land. Where visual disorder, like audacious melodies gush without fear, like a battle shield within a supposed reality. In society without time for observation, analyses, contemplation, audition and a new inaudible scream pseudo-instrument invades our brain, with rejected information where predictability is part of the routine and innate boredom is a way of escape. What is seen and heard is not what it seems nor does it pretend to be. Within the precarious and the technological, in the chaos and the calm, in the scarce and the abundant, the positive and the negative, in infancy and maturity, that is how I pass."
