Not For Sale
Presence
Interrupted rush
just before a fall, tumble,
crash. Such fun! So clean.
Présence
En tombant, l'eau rit.
La joie de vivre, source intacte
encore aujourd'hui.
Ps 104:10
Les Gorges du Durant in Valais Switzerland gave me ample inspirations for my new series "Source". All about water, the sources feeding our rivers and a concern for the longevity of potable water, the series is a warning about carelessness.

"We live in a fractured world. This chaos is evident in my work. In between the rivulets of paint and the textural accidents I choose colours and forms to suggest a landscape where beauty continues to reign. She is essential to the survival of humanity."
