Cache ta vie, 2014
Lacquer on canvas /
40 x 120 cm

       It is a canvas that is a priori white, blank, and therefore empty of signs, forms and meaning.

       But when viewed from a certain point of view, and helped by the light, an inscription appears.

      This work can therefore be understood as a possible visual metaphor for a philosophical concept. Epicurus' recommendation to "hide one's life", which invites one to cultivate and protect one's secret garden, takes on its full meaning here because this « carte blanche command » was made by private individuals.

       It can therefore only be opened to curious guests with whom the owners have established trust beforehand.
