A Person 10, 2023

"Mannerism of gestures, speech and behavior can often be consequence of idleness or indifference; a strong feeling or a serious matter return a human his natural semblance," Jean de La Bruyere.The Persons resemble animated puppets: an allegorical interpretation of a person as a theatrical doll allows the artist to dismiss the personal qualities of the portrayed, instead focusing on typical characteristsics of the "present-day hedonists". In this series, the artist prefers the painting tradition of the early 20th century, though revised in his own visual context.
