Beyond the shade,

The sun is as heavy as lead.

On my way, I found a sacred tree squeezed in between the Mandarin Oriental and Hilton hotels.

From the abstract lines of CDG airport to the sunrise in Bangkok.

To rethink democracy through a different lens, not rooted in ancient Athens but in Ionia, a no-rule entity based on a lack of social divisions… One of the most fascinating books I have read in a long time.

Days when winter recedes to welcome spring. Soon the sharpness of the cold air will be a distant memory…

After three years, I grew steadily convinced that I had some sort of natural immunity against COVID-19 but December 2022 brought me back to reality. It was also an opportunity to dive into layered fictional narratives.

One familiar path to awaken the senses.

Sometimes drawings are meant to live a life outside of their original purpose. Free to be interpreted and imagined further.

The moments that make Paris, Paris.

Half a year in Bangkok

Living in a hotel

With a view.

“On a scale of 1 to 10, where would you situate the intensity of the pain?” Pain is not exactly an easy thing to measure. In the weeks ahead, I will try to achieve something with less.

On the Mediterranean waters’ edge at Les Bords de Mer followed by the Grand Mezze exhibition at MUCEM, Marseille.

Last hours in Bangkok before boarding my midnight plane to Paris.

From Ban Saylom to Wat Xiengthong… Sketching moments in black and white.

Eclectic finds from my new reading corner at the library of the Jim Thompson Art Center in Bangkok. Sometimes the most exciting thing is to find a few treasures that seem to have been long forgotten on the shelves.

Successive cloudless days gradually elevated the temperature to above 40ºC.

The streets outside are emptied.

Occasionally people appear here and there.

Dotting the cityscape with their presence.

First days back in Bangkok, caught in between blank billboards, luscious palm trees and hazardous sidewalks.

Like seeing old friends again, I greeted the familiar sights, sounds, fragrance and feel of the city.

A brief stay in Paris which was marked by the beginning of the war in Ukraine. Unable to think of much else, I walked the streets of the city with different eyes.
