the unknown world: the imprint of physical trauma

Through this artistic concept, I explore a physical trauma that my body suffered when I was a child so that I can analyze and express this pain repressed by my body in order to make it an artistic poetic object.
     Once, as a little child, I spilled a cup of boiling water that was above me on my throat. I have no remembrance of it, only knowledge of the facts. It so happens that to cure this accident, the doctors put a fake skin on my throat so that the wound could heal. Today, nothing is visible anymore, but I still feel the stigmata.
     First, there is an airbrush reproduction of a pose highlighting the part of the body concerned, reflecting the memory and questioning the physicality of the body. Then the image is covered with red, there is inscription of memory in the Unknown World recalling blood and flesh. It is then in wanting to heal this memory that I cover the canvas of his fake skin, its plastic packaging, previously painted in shades of blue and white foam, in the form of biomimicry, recalling the false skin that was applied to me. The colorimetric evocation reminds the water, its many symbols and the antithesis with which it attacked me since the heat was not noticeable to me. The final process and image recall the work of the unconscious, apparently reproduced by the body and questions the role of the body on our memories and the stigmata that it leaves us in our skin.
