  :: :: The Aglou saga ::  

AGLOU (Sidi Moussa, province of Tiznit - south Morocco).
The first painting has been realized in Aglou in 1978,
originally an automatic drawing (filling of space).

The three other paintings were designed as a direct extension of the first,
free from any influences of the intermediaries versions.

One can note, by observing the four paintings, the progression from original
chaos towards a perfect balance, result of introspective auto-analyze feverish and exhausting,
which, although having wasted eight years of possible unconcern, were
extremely enlightening.

These images are mirrors: though having been conceived through personal theoretical search,
every body remains free to find his own interest there and make his own interpretation of it.

"Aglou 1"
 
1978 - Gouache - 21 x 27 cm.

Conceived and realized in 1978 in a cave between the desert and the ocean, in the south of Morocco, on a simple drawing paper sheet of 21 X 27 cm.

Without any starting idea, if not to let the pencil follow the whims of the hand and a passably tormented spirit, the elements appeared which I then included in the later versions.

Reflection, also, of the reality of this period: edge of sea, desert landscape, octopus which constituted my principal food, water pipe and chaotic impressions.

Coloured thereafter with gouaches, this painting is the very first image which I ever carried out in the long term and was the catch which made me enter, at the thirty years age into a time of intense pictorial creations which did not know any respite during the eight years which followed.
A search of harmony within chaos.
