00:00 It's been quite a long time since I took the time to reflect on the reason I keep doing
00:10 it.
00:11 But I guess we all have our own things.
00:14 I've never thought of memories to be something we need to be afraid of.
00:18 But in a sense, you're right.
00:22 I gotta admit.
00:25 I've always been scared of many things.
00:29 I feel like every time I have to do something, I'm scared, actually.
00:34 So I keep having these pictures in my head.
00:37 Pictures of moments, memories that come back, and they keep asking me for something.
00:45 But they're so vague, and rarely involve people I know.
00:50 It's more like pictures that force me to take a step back.
00:56 I feel like there is a schema, and I can't really explain it.
01:02 But all of these memories have something in common.
01:06 Even if I was looking up, or down, or far ahead.
01:14 Don't you feel it?
01:20 Maybe it is because I feel small.
01:22 Or is it the opposite?
01:26 Do I feel like a giant?
01:32 People always tell you that in art, scale and perspective are important.
01:37 But honestly, I've been more worried about scale and perspective in my own life, rather
01:43 than in my art.
01:45 What do I want to achieve?
01:47 Where do I want to go?
01:50 Somewhere quiet.
01:52 Somewhere busy.
01:55 Ocean.
01:59 Mountains.
02:03 At some point, I don't even know if these pictures are memories from the past, or projections
02:12 of what I want to see in the future.
02:16 Will I live here?
02:18 Have I lived here?
02:20 I believe I'm living here.
02:23 But once again, when I'm working, I'm not even sure about it.
02:29 And sometimes, I see people, all unrecognizable.
02:34 But at least I'm not alone anymore.
02:39 Like here.
02:40 Which, honestly, doesn't happen that often in my memories.
02:47 So yeah, this is why I paint all these memories.
02:53 I get less afraid of them in the end.
02:57 I can see their beauty, and be thankful for still having them around.
03:02 Yeah.
