I am presenting here short fictional stories inspired by daily news in the
form of songs, very much in the style of popular songs of a bygone era,
where news items were orally transmitted. The songs are short with a
tormenting chorus and sung from the point of view of the interpreter : ‘I’,
therefore involving directly the character of the story.
I am interested in developing fragments of short stories, and experience
their ability to circulate within a popular context as well as how they settle
within the imaginary of tthe listener. The stories are deformed, therefore
diluting the authenticity of the tale, they mediate between the familiar and
the uncanny. Their rhythm corresponds to the one of nursery rhymes and
popular songs with a chorus.

ARTIST TALK
More than an artist talk it will be a pictures talk.
The idea is to share my own archive, personal or found, which has built my present work.
Create and show the link between these none artistic pictures and my own artistic work.
Plus qu’une présentation de l’artiste ce sera une présentation d’images.
L’idée est de partager mes propres archives, personnelles ou trouvées, qui ont construit mon travail actuel.
Créer et montrer le lien entre ces images non artistiques et mon propre travail.
