Writing from elsewhere...

Ancient forms of communication that represent the fragile link between the present and the past, and transcend time...

In the course of the characters, written automatically and guided, we can imagine priceless tales, texts of ancestral wisdom and the revelation of unfathomable mysteries, like a window opening onto vanished worlds.

 

A trace of humanity...

This writing carries with it the soul of a bygone era, mysteriously evoking the customs, beliefs and achievements of ancient peoples.

The symbols could merge into a system of calligraphy, hieroglyphics and distant scripts... Egyptian, Amerindian or Sanskrit typography...

Each character, each symbol is a preserved vestige of humanity, a fragile trace provoking powerful sensations.

After the death of my grandfather Jacques, an architect by trade, painting, photography and writing came into my life.

As I let myself be guided, the lines I drew revealed a uniquely constructed and automatic handwriting, regular and at other times different, that could be recognized at first glance, with the need to use it in much of my work.

Even if some of this writing remains an unsolved mystery, it arouses curiosity, admiration and wonder.
