Each painting invites the viewer on a journey between precise figuration and poetic evocation.

A contemporary figurative art — for today and for tomorrow.
My vision of contemporary figurative painting
I have always been fascinated by the evocative power of the figurative image.
To paint what one sees — or rather, what one feels when looking at the world — is, for me, an essential act.Each painting is an attempt to capture on canvas that fragile balance between perceived reality and the emotion it evokes.
I strive to render details, to capture light, to suggest atmosphere.
Yet beyond the visible, I seek to awaken memory, dreams, and the intimate.For me, contemporary figurative painting is a universal language that connects artist and viewer beyond words.
It opens a silent dialogue, where each person can project their own imagination.
