Influenced by climate change, cosmic horror, Romanticism and escapism, my work is situated in a new era. Another world where man is no longer present, except for a few phantom apparitions. The works collectively attempt to transport the viewer into the philosophy of another reality. A world where forests and mountains merge, where climate change makes us think about a world where nature regains the upper hand.

This reality is impossible to grasp or place. It is a philosophy, an idea, a concept, a vision of the future, mediated/shaped by different media such as A.I., photoshop, laser cut, multi-layered woodcuts, etc.

Together, they seek to transform preconceived concepts into new realities that make us dream of a world where everything is nothing and nothing can become everything. A tree can be a mountain, a tower, a river, a cloud of mist, an abstraction, an idea. Is the tree actually present or is our brain trying to construct a world based on what we think we know?
