Description of Artwork

My artwork depicts contemporary topics such as today’s obsession on body,  fitness pushed to the extreme, bodybuilding and space.   Our society is so preoccupied with the perfect body but yet remains unfamiliar to the fact that it is surrounded, nonetheless, by emotions in the training, the relationship and the goals.  I use sculptural and muscular bodies because they deserve to be worshiped as they  have been throughout  history,  the  representation of our mythologies, emotions and aspirations.


Personal History

Looking back, I think Art has always played a significant part in my life.  My youth in a small francophone village in Quebec was surrounded by religious art.  As a teenager, I moved away to study art related subjects. After a number of years of clinical work routine and not much art, I recently rediscovered the part of me that  finds art enjoyable and relaxing.  I enjoy bodybuilding and I admire artists such as Michelangelo, Rodin, Corno, Frank Frazetta and  Boris Vallejo who master and idealize the human figure.
