Hi Nathalie,

It’s great to see a video on here, using the immersive possibilities of moving images, particularly in the context of an illuminated screen- which is how we get most of our information these days. Really enjoyed the difference.

Was reading your statement on your page and find it interesting that you work as a kind of technician after you have the concept, by making it ‘real’ in various mediums. (I like this turn of phrase.)Does this ever alter what you have in your mind?

This is the first time I’ve seen a video of yours on Newbloodart, and it’s great to see another vehicle for your interest in ‘mental intimacy’. I also like the idea that “ideas come in waves”, and wondered if video allows you to give the same experience to the viewer?

Hello Soraya. Thanks you for your comment. I am glad that you enjoy the video. I like the idea of technician; I think the artist can be seen as a finder of solution. He is the one to know, find out what is the best medium to express and translate his concept. Some of my projects use only one medium and some others call many, like this video. I think it will be interesting to transcript the motion into a book. So, right now, I cannot tell you more about the concept, but I am working on it. Each time, I got an idea, the project appears clearly in my mind, let’s say is like a movie screen in my head. Also, the artwork is the result of what is inside and I really enjoy making it. Most of the time, it is pretty close of what I imagine. If not, I look for the best solution.

For many years, I have been shy of sharing my work and express fully myself through it. I had a fear to share my ‘mental intimacy’. More, I do better I feel. I saw my artwork as a visual language between who I am and the viewer. Sometimes an artwork is a mirror with a perfect reflection and some other times is blurred. And it is where I interfere in the process. I choose what I will give to the viewer. When I say ‘ideas come in waves’, I mean I have some time where my creative mind is very active-productive, many ideas come together. I dedicate my schedule to make a first prototype, some sketches or write the artwork’s statement. After that, I have some ‘flat’ time or time of regeneration that I use to read, make an artwork or some marketing tasks.

The video is like an installation, a painting or a sculpture. I use it as a medium to express the idea. I thought animated pictures as I saw it inside of me. I wish the viewer will get a personal experience while watching it. I gave an artwork to look at and each watcher is invited to read it with its own interpretation. It is just something that I cannot manipulate.

Hey Darwin! Can you tell us more about your project, please? Feel free to email-me or post here your links. Tks.
