Oil painting

Twins

Original title: Jumeaux

Two towers, two children’s faces, one white aeroplane: the moment before.

Each of the twin towers carries a face, and it is the same face. Between them hangs a target whose bull’s-eye is already starring like a struck windscreen. The plane, seen from behind, has not yet arrived. Painted in 2006, the canvas shows neither fire nor smoke, only the last second in which everything is still whole.

About the series

Each canvas in this cycle starts from a title — an expression, a brand, a slogan — and treats it as a subject for classical painting. The result is a chronicle of contemporary public life, in which power, money and belief appear as characters.
