Autumn, the season between summer and winter, a time of change. It brings beautiful colours of fallen leafs, snugly evenings in front of the fire.
We start preparing for the winter time, harvest and conserve fruits and vegetables from our garden, store firewood, take out our cosy woolen cloths.
Nature is preparing herself for a long rest, to recover, to recharge its batteries for a great comeback next spring.

Autumn also reminds us on the impermanence of life. Maybe a good time to reflect and letting go ?

Few weeks ago, we started restoring another old house here in Fitou. Long time ago, it has been a larger house which was separated into two houses as a result of an inheritance debate.
The separation wall was partly made with flat natural stones in gypsum and small terra-cotta bricks but only about 5-7 cm thick.

I am still playing with white pigments while thinking about one’s frame of reference, the overall perceptual, conceptual, affect and action set, which is used to define the self, other people and the world. That set of beliefs has been formed by cultural influences and our conscious and unconscious decision we have been taken:
we see, what we want to see.

I over-painted bold red pigments with layers of white, until most of the red shines through very thin only.

Le 25 aout, j’ai ouvert le dernier vernissage dans l’ART Fabrik. Ce n’était pas seulement le dernier vernissage de la saison, mais aussi le dernier dans cet endroit parce que nous avons vendu la maison.

Cette annonce n’a pas plu beaucoup de nos invités et ils étaient très triste.

Vergangenen Freitag habe ich die letzte Ausstellung in der ART Fabrik eröffnet. Das ist nicht nur die letzte Vernissage der Saison, sondern auch die letzte an diesem Platz, dann das Haus haben wir verkauft.
