In this context, my work consisted of developing a series of paintings that had as its pigments and support the materials provided by the renovation works. Brick, slate tiles, and plaster were reassembled and transformed into a smaller grain allowing the use of it as a source of color and texture for the painting of the double glass plates once part of the Petites Écuries glass canopy. The original image, roughness, and size of the original materials are transformed into a more delicate and almost abstract form that plays with the idea of value. It’s only through a closer look that our eyes are capable of distinguishing the origins of the paintings and the initial lack of value that its materials portrayed. Trash and waste are a matter of point of view.
