Endcount is an art project that aims to bring attention to species on the brink of extinction. The numbers are dropping each year, unless we do something about it. This series of unique generative artworks where art, and technology intersect will hopefully make a difference.
Register to mailing listI’m a french born artist / designer living in Australia since 2004. I now work part time as an editorial designer for one of the largest publishing companies in Australia as well as pursuing my dream as an artist. I have been commissioned in various art projects including an exhibition in Melbourne and Sydney. My work was also featured in the 2010 Semi-Permanent book, a few magazines, the TOP design TV shows and some blogs.
I have a passion for art, technology and storytelling and i can see how my design work is linked to my art and vice-versa.
I mainly depict the human-animal interaction in our modern society through the making of art. Our fast-paced modern world doesn’t always allow us to experience an intimate connection with the natural world we are hoping to save.
As a figurative painter, I explore the forms and meaning in our human and animal worlds. I use a pop-infused colour palette to express the emotions and the distinct personality of my subjects. Colour combinations I use convey particular feelings and self-expression. I use different types of palette knives to give a rough texture, and to capture and invoke the raw emotions on to the canvas. I then employ drip-painting using a paint brush.
Aside from my paintings, I’m also working with a friend on an art project: Endcount, aiming to bring attention to animal species on the brink of extinction. It’s a generative art piece.

Continue Reading“Taxi, taxi! ” it was 2.30pm in the afternoon in NYC, 40 degrees near fifth avenue. “Can we please go to Grand Soho hotel?” I said with my french accent.
The driver switched on the air conditioning and turned on the radio, it was Bill Evans, a soft, gentle jazz melody. We drove around the busy and noisy streets of NY; the big skyscrapers, the stunning art deco buildings that run the length of 42nd street, the fashionable shops, jazz clubs, the restaurants, I saw thousands of taxis, billboards AND people everywhere….
