3 Collections, 3 visions uniques pleines de poésie, d'énergie et de couleurs inspirées par les voyages et les rencontres de Jean.
An urban landscape and a unique multicultural mosaic where speed and light coexist and constantly overlap in the concrete jungle. Speed and noise are at the heart of this metropolis.
Travel to the vibrant streets of Dakar, the quiet island of Morphil along the River Senegal, visit ancient mosques and beautiful landscapes engulfed by the sand storms. Pay homage to the Senegalese soldiers of Thiaroye.
Travel to Murano or Puglia, and discover a unique world of colors and textures. History is alive along the Venetian canals. And the ancient olive trees of Monopoli do not grow, they remember.

Un art intemporel
En voyage à Woodstock (Etat de New York) en 2006, je découvre dans une galerie l’encaustique - encaustic painting ou wax art - du Grec « εγκαίειν » « enkaiein » faire brûler, graver au feu : technique de peinture utilisée par les artistes égyptiens, grecs et romains de l’Antiquité. Déjà Pline l’ancien au I er siècle après J.-C s'interrogeait sur cette technique dans son Histoire Naturelle. Certains portraits du Fayoum (Egypte) apportent encore aujourd'hui un beau témoignage de maîtrise de cette technique.
Encaustic Mix Media
"I print the photograph on Japanese paper and then apply encaustic: a painting process in which melted beeswax mixed with pigments is applied to the photograph using a brush or spatula. This rich and ever-changing technique allows me to explore a wide range of effects—opaque and transparent, smooth and textured, matte and glossy—thus transcending and magnifying the image, elevating the all-too-real into the unreal, sometimes blurred. This sensual and fragrant technique enables me to explore an extensive array of visual effects, transforming and sublimating the overly real world."
Une méthode riche
et versatile
De la photo à la peinture en passant par l’encaustique. J’imprime la photo sur du papier japonais que j’encaustique : procédé de peinture dans lequel la cire d’abeille fondue à chaud mêlée aux pigments est appliquée sur la photographie à l’aide d’un pinceau ou d’une spatule. Cette technique riche et mouvante me permet d’explorer une large gamme d’effets opaques et transparents, lisses et texturés, mates et brillants, et ainsi de transcender et magnifier l’image, et de sublimer le réel trop réel en irréel parfois flou.
Encaustic painting, also known as hot wax painting, is a form of painting that involves a heated wax medium to which colored pigments have been added. The molten mix is applied to a surface—usually prepared wood, though canvas and other materials are sometimes used.
