I collect plastic bottles. I cut them up, heat them, crush them, admire them, crumple them, talk to them... I try to give a natural and living form to a fossilised, dead, polluting material and represent the essential life forces: water, plants, the sea, through the plastic that today suffocates them. I am driven by this idea of rebirth!

I see the constant intertwining of the natural and the industrial. I try to approach its contours and illustrate certain aspects of it. I agglutinate organic materials and polymer petals; the calibrated material reacts randomly to heat and ultimately evokes lightness, light and movement. What a surprise! The deformation that my hands try to control constantly escapes me. Each creation thus acquires its own character and ultimately a certain freedom.

In this sense, my work is resolutely optimistic. A material that was thought to be dead, ugly and to be banished is transformed into a living and aesthetic object.
