Dense, almost earthbound forms gradually rise, like fragments of an archaic language. Their massive presence invades the space, imposing the power of black—not only through color, but through the very substance, worked in thickness or transparency, in matte or gloss. Faced with this gravity, color insinuates itself as a counterpoint. In subtle glazes, it disrupts the confrontation between black and white, introducing chromatic interludes: ivory, golden beige, sometimes the irruption of an orange-red, a lemon green, or a deep blue. These nuances, sometimes discreet, sometimes commanding, capture the eye and reinvent the balance of the pictorial field. Thus, a tension is established between the precious and the archaic, between brilliance and silence. from this duality is born a fragile harmony, carried by the light of white, a space of respite, a suspended breath, a memory of emptiness.
