My contemporary series "Abrasion", Light - Colours - Earth and Sea, mixed media, photography and digital art, is a quest to extract colours from the spectrum of white light reflected from the surface of water in different places and at different times of the year.

The Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, the Caribbean Sea, rivers, lakes and ponds.

A colourist's eye, inspired by the sensitivity of the Fauvist school and the technicality of Newton.

This series has a double meaning, the first being to extract the infinite, shifting beauty of nature, often invisible to the naked eye.

The second is in the name.

The term 'abrasion' echoes that of 'corrosion'.

This series sounds like the gnashing of teeth in the face of the degradation of our natural environment, even in very remote places, as I was able to observe during my years spent in Guadeloupe.

This series was born there in 2019, on Babin beach in Morne à l'eau, in the setting sun.

This series is available as a four-colour print on transparent plexiglass.

This contemporary medium, which faithfully reproduces the colours and luminosity captured through the lenses of my camera, itself becomes an additional lens, adding a slight depth to the image.The light and its colours are captured through a succession of lenses, with the diaphragm of the viewer's eye as the ultimate actor.
