Thrill-Seekers

Original title: Les amateurs de sensations fortes

A couple on the beach: she is plated in metal and needles, he is hewn out of rock.

Her head comes to a point like a drop of water, her bra is made of dials and her legs are sheathed in steel. He wears a straw hat and a smile in profile, with a long wooden neck above a torso of red stones. The sky is a cracked pane of blue glass. People who live for strong sensations end up wearing them as armour.

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.
