Characters, a kind of archetype of the individual, are staged in improbable, uncomfortable, absurd situations. They are confronted with incompatible space-time, their human condition, their limits, their weakness or their creative power.

These themes result in works where two elements frequently appear, two worlds (ex)posed in a precarious balance; often in search of a harmony, a stable unity between man and his environment.
