Le plateau à caillou, 2025

For several years, I painted still lifes. I arranged the objects to be depicted very precisely (see the book I made with Leonard Koren, Arranging Things). The tray with legs dates from the period when I made that book, but for me it is new because, unlike all my other compositions, which were destroyed once the painting was finished, this composition was never depicted and was the first to be glued down, the following year for my work at CRAFT. I glued the ceramics onto wooden bases.

The other two compositions could be called details of my studio, because the objects in them are always arranged according to what I might call my "installation" mania!
