  After studying Fine Arts, I dedicate myself to teaching arts and become Head of the Fine Arts School of Châteauroux. My artistic process revolves around the notion of “canvas” seen as a space to weave a network of ties to the others. The “on” project stems from a wish of locating and qualifying this experience by creating works that shares and arranges individual creations. Yes, but how? According to which modes and to what end? Everything originates form “on”, in its many possible approaches, and unfolds a polyphonic creation around its interpretation.

  Starting in 1995, I begin my studies in philosophy at the University of Paris Nanterre to deal with this question in depth, and write two theses:

• (Year I) "On, où les subjectivations par l’impersonnel dans l’art" ("on", or the subjectivications by the impersonal in art).

• (Year II) "Interprétation ontologique de on dans Être et temps de Martin Heidegger" (ontological interpretation of "on" in Being and Time by Martin Heidegger).

  My interest for philosophy compels me to ponder on other  ways of questioning the relation between various fields (conceptual and sensitive).

The French pronoun "on" has several meanings. "On" can be synonymous to "we", or to "one".

It can also be used to express the lack of embodied or known subject.
