 Quiet, peaceful paintings. 20 years ago, I started to plan this series of peaceful paintings. And this show at Moudam is the result of this long-lasting project. Large landscaping the very north of Luxembourg. The painting I made for the city of Trois-Bierges. The feeling of space. Nowadays, many people look at the world by staring at the screen. Through this painting, I wanted to give back the idea of living in a body in real space. The village of Holla, also in the very north of Luxembourg. Another work on customers' requests. As it offers me a certain independence as an artist, I do them. Humble paintings at first glance, yet the compositions reveal their complexity as soon as one has a closer look at them. The very last one of 13 mosaics that Mosaic master Carlo Signorini realized after sketches or paintings I made during the last three years of his life. In the tradition of the Ravana mosaics, yet free of dogma or ideology. The ancient cheese shale stone quarry in our village in summer. In the ancient days, until the 1950s, people took the stones from that place to build their houses. This mount in nature reminds me of my mother who died of a tumor 35 years ago. I also try to express how we treat nature through this kind of paintings, as far as painting can do this. Small landscapes with trees. After a heart attack in 2011, I was not able to work on large-scale paintings for almost one year. So I developed series with miniatures. And as these series have a very special charm, creating an intimate relation between the viewer and the image, as one has to have a closer look to really be able to see them, I continued the series of miniatures over the years. Three variations of the road leading to our village. A wonderful place with a landscape lies in front of us like an open book. I often work on variations on the same subject, as what we consider being the same actually never is exactly the same. This special landscape also remembers me of certain book illuminations from the Middle Age, as well as certain Renaissance paintings. Actually, the larger of these three versions is an allusion to a late painting by Peter Braggill, the fall of Icarus, with the difference that in my painting Icarus crashes into a hedge on the left of the image, and that the farmer works with a tractor instead of a horse.
