I invite you to step into my world... Usually, I guide you along the way. I create the conditions that allow for free, intuitive artistic expression—one rich in discoveries and encounters with the self. This time, I’ve decided to step to the other side of the experience. To create for myself. To let myself be surprised by the materials, the colors, the marks. Not always knowing where I’m going… and accepting that I’ll discover it along the way. I explore and get to know myself better through this exercise—one that is at once intuitive, so natural, and sometimes so disorienting. I’ve embarked on this new adventure with the desire, today, to open the door to you. To let you discover my world. My marks. My colors. My way of bringing out what wasn’t there before. Welcome to TRACES PLURI-AILES, my first exhibition—an invitation to discover another facet of myself: the Artist. A concept store showcasing Martinican art and craftsmanship.
