About this series
16 paintings on canvas, inspired by the chameleon's ability to appear and disappear, and the mutations, transformations, immersions, confusions, etc. that this supposes.
What Micheline LO said about it
Making something appear and disappear at the same time is one of the painter's most constant aims.
How can the chameleon be immersed in its environment without losing it ?
A demanding game of kaleidoscope and visual beats. A work on form and substance, which feed off each other. What Henri VAN LIER said about it
Mousiqa was the beyond of all painting, while the Caméléons are the natural object of this type of painting.
They are transformation, (re)sequenciation, ultrastructures, encounter between an external and an internal environment,
interfaces of inside/outside as focal points of individuation, confusion between perceived and perceiving,
perception not from the outside, as a mere cutout, but from the inside. The viewer-contemplator intending to remain before the painting,
is first and foremost inside, polytopical. Those familiar with the work often said that if one had to capsulize this type of painting in an image,
a chameleon would exactly do the work.
