"In the year 2222, the world was covered in sand and arid land, with very few traces of flora and fauna left, and humanity was practically extinct. The only semblance of activity was the murmur of machines that continued to function thanks to solar and other renewable energies.

Dans cet univers apocalyptique, un artiste – l’un des seuls êtres encore en vie sur cette terre – était incapable de sauver son monde.

Fascinated by ancient pictorial works, with their rich depictions of landscapes, people and resources, he took refuge in his screens, the only place where he was able to find and model fictitious inspiration.

So, over the course of his life, he created landscapes, still lifes and totally virtual portraits that allowed him to immerse himself in this past fantasy."
