Microfilms
You'll never hear the words again like you did when you saw them!
A burlesque microfilm montage that doesn't mince its words!

Made up of more than a hundred microfilms often lasting less than a minute, "Definitive Creatures" creates an absurd comic genre based on the use of costumed or naked bodies, literally illustrating "far-fetched" puns on common expressions. The paintings intertwine and articulate like drawer illustrations forming a sort of Alice in Vermilion Land grammar where the illuminations on the pages come alive. "Definitive Creatures" thus gives rise to a strange fiction without a story, where no script is needed to express the most intimate things of our daily lives, by building an ubuesque bridge between body and language.

Definitive Creatures is an hour and a half of erotic, poetic and comic strangeness
"Universal Sexual Imagination". I opted for this subtitle when I edited the first DVD of a series that I was considering long and with drawers. This is indeed the way I feel the imagery that inhabits me.
Even if everyone would obviously not formulate it through the same "stagings", the short and burlesque situations, double-edged and with multiple meanings inspired by the words, have to do in a simple and obvious way with our world, both intimate and external to us. I would even say that proportionally, the more literal and primary the translations of the meaning of our acts and thoughts are, the more effectively they render the mechanism of our behaviour and the psychic environment in which language bathes us.
So for me, there is a certain thrill in seeing the depth, dirty clothesThis is a play on words or a literal illustration, which often proves to have an eminently fairer and more lasting impact on the sensitive layers of our receptivity than an analysis that considers itself profound.
In the end he operates a bit like music, not quite calculating the paths he takes beyond the appearance of what he resonates. It is in any case one of the doors, along with the nudity that in my case often accompanies it, that I choose to use and abuse the corridors to which both lead. A crumbled body that I thirst to pull by the hair to drag it before your eyes... friends, enemies, shameless, distant, voyeurs, amused, amazed, accomplices... ah ah ah!
