Installation of suspended and layed down Floating Rocks with half rocks collided with the wall forming systemic paintings as kind of screens. In one of the floating rocks, on the wall, a screened Bollywood movie. No sound, just the image bursting on the rock by the set play of reflections. The dance of colors and energies as another visage... This whole atmosphere is creating an extraordinary journey for the spectator, successively becoming subject and alive painting. Systemic reflection on nowadays image and multiplicity of sights at the heart of creation.

And if the reflections in the rocks were the extension of illusion, so that everything around us has a sense? The unreal becoming real but remaining fragile, everything is illusion...
