In a world where everything passes and goes, time dominates our lives. Without wishing to express philosophical considerations, the engraver invites us to observe the poetic force of seemingly insignificant objects. Whether it’s chains or loose mechanisms, each of them has its own life and energy. The composition is made harmonious thanks to a traced resumed to the drypoint and to the warm tonality of the stitched paper.
