The Louvre, both deserted and bustling for the Tour. It's colorful, grandiose. In short, a childhood dream. This painting is the fifth piece of my project "Moment mirage" created in Paris in 2023. What remains of the emotion in the pixelated smile of a friend when the cell phone is lost? What happens to family albums when grandma is no longer there to comment on them? From the daguerreotype to the iPhone, passing through Kodak, the photographic medium relentlessly struggles to monopolize the moment. However, the wild present refuses to be caged. We can only experience it in passing. During "Moment Mirage," an exhibition of large-format expressive paintings, the artist invites you to set aside your devices of all kinds. Through their works, they will attempt the impossible: to make you relive the vaporous and elusive present without the simulacrum of screens, of photography. Armed simply with acrylic, pastels, and oil paint, the artist invites you to join them in the intimacy of their memories, moments of accidental beauty, and fractured memory.
