Description
As a performer artist with good skills contemporary dance, I start from my body as a brush. I treat painting as an unique live performative event.
This work is the result of a visceral artistic act, created in real time during the larger Performance titled < Je ne regretted Rien > in front of an audience, where the boundaries between body, gesture, and emotion dissolve completely.
The painting is not just a final object, but a trace of an intensely lived moment — a fragment of energy captured directly onto the surface.
The rich texture, achieved through direct contact between the body and the surface, preserves the marks of movement — each gesture becoming evidence of physical presence.
Music, an essential part of the performance, acted as a catalyst for movement. Rhythm, intensity, and sonic variations translate visually into the direction and energy of the marks — from broad, almost choreographic gestures to sudden, spontaneous bursts of material and color. In this way, the work becomes a form of synesthesia: sound transformed into form, and the body into an instrument of transcription.
Ultimately, the painting stands as both a residue and a witness — a living document of a performative act in which creation itself becomes the subject.
