Sensory

When doing a painting I consider that the canvas and construction of the frame are as valuable as the painted image. I chooses whether the created object should be seen as an object in space, or as a delimiter of this space.

Energetic

I choose whether the work should be seen by people, or whether it should act according to the other energies that surround it, having an indirect impact. I take into account the play of consciousness between the creator and the spectator, and between the creator and the sensory environment.

Dada

To not fall into the possible seriousness and discipline often found in spiritual traditions and methods of self development, I included the word ‘dada’ in the name of DadaBhum. Dada is an echo of the artistic movement Dada which invites us to take the edge off the seriousness through a playful or absurd approach.  

Bhum

It comes from the Sanskrit word Bhumi, which means land. It reminds us to stay rooted.
