The Sab a Lanmou series is the story of creation, my sensitivity to artistic creation.



When the images appear, a powerful desire to transcribe them as accurately as possible takes hold of me. I must then master the emotion, the trance, to master the light and the camera to allow me to make them appear.

The appropriation of the act of creation is then similar to that of the conception of a human being.

Gametes mix in the most powerful act: the meeting between the sperm and the egg in a powerful wave. From there, an embryo is born and develops, first in the matrix that is water for life; then it builds itself; it spreads its wings until it takes flight towards life.

The masculine and the feminine, the feminine and the masculine, without any question of gender but of energy, when they are in perfect balance, allow us to build ourselves in spite of the differences.



This series is an allegory to the possible transformation in the will of creation that each one can bring to his choices, to his destiny. No judgment in good or bad but simply balance, such is my conception of Love.
