Gaps. Redrawing the first squarings of appropriation of space and by some
geometrical lines scarifying brutality. The relationship between nature
and man. Today, we became the main agent of erosion-destruction of our surrounding
world. The safeguarding of weakened natural balances seems now impossible.
On the canvas, reversing the time to find back a strong nature, when the
trail of men were still fragile and erasable. To find the reversibility,
like these ways in the fields, these paths in forest which in a few years
can be reabsorb in the vegetable growth. To find the shy first steps of
the origins. To imagine the first openings, the first penetrations, the
first passages in the heart of the vegetation.
