What are holes ?




Often dark, it is shaped by the matter around it. The hole, an inevitable element, is everywhere. By exploring feelings I have questionned their nature, what they bring, what make them beautiful and meaningful. I have digged, drilled, pierced, shaped, molded and streched hundreds and hundreds of holes to better understand their nature.
