mes vidéos et mes compositions

Piel is a video creator-musician and a musician-video creator who plays with images as he plays with his music; stretching,
superposing, painting numerically, filming; inventing visual climates which are close to sound.

Studies of music composition - diplômé de l'école Normale de Musique de Paris (composition de musique de film) - Étudie avec JLValero (Musiques de Rohmer), PMestral (L'argent des Autres/Hotel du Nord) - Lille 2004, capitale européenne de la Culture - Vidéoformes - Expos à Annemasse, Marais Poitevin - Expos à Paris : La rue est à nous (UNIVER) - Artistes se mobilisent contre la sclérose en plaque - Co-responsable de l'espace d'Art contemporain Eugène Beaudouin à Antony.

He is living at the present
moment his chosen scenario, his chosen path: life in the county with a companion in wisdom, building, re-building his base
in a little hamlet far away from the biz, while building his inner space of calm, and of action, for a different world.
Choice of subjects for video : his work covers extensively the themes of happiness and wisdom with in particular "A Venir
le Monde Sage": an exhibition concept, access to culture for people with limited accessibility, projects for a Culture of
Peace, with most recently Jeunes du Monde (World Youth) supported by Unesco.
Through these actions and his work on these projects, he continues his own creation, transposing the vibration of these
themes (wisdom, peace, transformation, music, childhood, manipulation).

PIEL uses new technologies in the service of feeling; feeling; an act which well describes his creations both past and to
come. There is one path he walks towards others, bringing his knowledge to the support of causes and another inner artistic
path, but of course this is not all and this is his story in action.

The major axis of my work is based on poetry, on my feelings, via a search for forms and colours. But just as important is
my work with black and white, and contrast... seeking counterpoint, musicality and harmony. As passionate about
tradition as artistic innovation, my energy is devoted to a concept of Total Art, which brings together living painting, music,
audiovisual and new technologies. I am a story-teller, sometimes of abstract stories, but I leave each person free to
recreate the scenes which are sometimes suggested (fleeting and evanescent), sometimes more explicit, but always with the
desire to pass on a clear message and some of my values.
Graphical research, musical research... an idea germinates... the means of touching it, reaching it, are multiple. For the
main part I use already filmed images (DvCam or HD) sometimes filmed a long time ago (Dv, VHS or Super8). I
sometimes draw from film archives now free of copyright or family films (le Pantin, All of ....and le Bonheur de Créer tout
ça). And so I create from all these sources, mixing and transforming them... and always to music.

" A modern-day troubadour and multi-platform artist, Piel is a young and sensitive artist who blends
images and music to transport us into his dream world "
