This is a series called Cicatrice ( scar) I put had up in a group exhibition held at the castle inTourette sur Loup.
I am still amused that a famous artist of the area hounded me for the secrets of my techniques for this series.
The secret (which I didn't reveal at the time) starts with using a heavy medium or paint so that the paper, (that is stretched on a board with tape), tears the substrate and leaves a natural rip or "fente" in the paper.
That is the beginning step. "Scar" is related to the theme of several other series I did during this period. The pieces are now double framed in a passe-partout of 50x70 cm.
