" Behind every selfportrait,
There's an idea I want to convey,
A pose, a concept, a quote;
I want to inteprete.
But most often than not : this is not about me.
It's about curves,
It's about light,
It's about motion,
And emotions.
At a certain period,
When artists wanted to represent themselves,
They had to sit and paint,
And lie and wait.
For hours.
And during those times they spent,
In layers and layers of colours,
They had to have this whole introspection process...
It's got to be.
Because it's about expressing something that comes from within.
It's about sharing a part of ourselves;
A part we'd rather keep secret. "
