In my practice, I aim to question the interrelationships,such as, similarity between science and art. It's a way for me to go beyondthe limit of my ignorance and knowledge by feeding myselfthe concepts and forms, which I will twist away from the originalfunction. There are many similarities betweensciences and arts ; one could say that art is looking for thetruth of the beauty while mathematics are looking for thepossible beauty of truth.
