Chromie is a series of three works that are part of a pictorial exploration of color in oil painting.
Starting from a deliberately restricted palette — three to four hues — color unfolds and liberates itself, allowing light to emerge through the material, nuances, and variations in value.
The surface, constructed like a mosaic, is composed of a multitude of traces. Each pictorial gesture adds to, blends with, and transforms itself upon contact with others, giving birth to a dense, vibrant, and perpetually moving fabric.
Each work originates from a unique experience: a moment (a winter morning in Florence for Lumen), an internal state (the journey through life's fluctuations in Persistances), or a sensation (nocturnal freedom in Résonances d’Hexagone).
