ART FOCUS: MATHIEU BORIES

Collage and Stencil artist, Mathieu Bories alias Mateo questions the
perception of the world which surrounds us. His humanistic approach
emphasizes a nostalgia of childhood as well as a romanticism erased in
our contemporary society.
Forgotten images, photography, travel documents accumulated in search of
timeless knowledge are the raw material of a personal composition, a
monologue of the soul.
