"As when you are abroad and you want to tell and describe by emails to your friends - those who are far - what you go through…but you realize they could never feel or really touch what you tried to tell them. So you decide to accept that you can not really testimony, but on the other hand build, re-invent a new experience, not the one that you are trully going through but a kind of active place, through your memory to the field of art, like building History, an escape plan, a way to create a new ground, mixing ghosts, fictions, fake and real traces from the daily life and the collective memory. This is the kind of example that could define my desire of practicing art. "
