Mum and Dad

Mum and Dad is a genealogical portrait and an attempt to define the alchemical energy of human essence. I started with my feet
that are so distinct one of the other, then my whole body was the subject of my attention. I was looking for differences in vertical
symmetry. and I recognized the similarities with my genetic origins, the physical aspects inherited from my parents. This led me to
think of a luminous silhouette that would emerge from its own essence. We are the fusion of two being but we radiate our differences,
never two without three.
