Original Artwork
Artivism: Survival Match is a unique original artwork from my Planet Ocean Gallery series, exploring climate change, disappearing Arctic habitats and the wildlife that depends on them.
The original artwork measures A3 and is presented framed in A2.
Created using alcohol ink and traditional ink, the artwork combines fluid colour with my detailed stippling technique. Each element is built up one dot at a time, making this an exceptionally detailed and entirely unique original artwork.

Artivism: Survival Match
Our planet is changing because of human activity, but some places are changing much faster than others.
The Arctic has warmed several times faster than the global average in recent decades. As temperatures rise and sea ice disappears, species that depend on these frozen habitats are losing the environments they need to survive.
Everything is connected. Climate change, habitat loss and declining biodiversity cannot be considered separately, and nowhere is that connection more visible than in the Arctic.
I wanted to express this through my ARTivism piece Survival Match. Arctic animals come together to form the shape of a flame, while the ice beneath them is already disappearing, leaving less and less space on which to survive.
Despite the seriousness of the subject, I wanted the artwork to retain a sense of hope. The surrounding ice represents what can still be protected.
Survival Match is about a race against time, but it is also a reminder that there is still something worth fighting for.
Exhibitions
Artivism: Survival Match forms part of my Planet Ocean Gallery series.
Works from the series were exhibited with ChangeNOW at the Grand Palais Éphémère in Paris in March 2024 and as part of my exhibition at La CLEF in Saint-Germain-en-Laye.
The series supports the global 30x30 goal: protecting at least 30% of the world's ocean by 2030.

Art Is a Powerful Communication Tool
The environment and its protection are my favourite themes for my artistic statement. The fragility of our planet, and in particular that of the oceans, is the main issue that I wish to highlight through my art. Water and nature are fundamental elements in my artwork. Beyond arousing emotions, I want to make the viewer feel the need to act and commit to protecting the planet.
With each painting, each remark and each observation, my artistic approach grows, evolves and matures. The trust given to me by viewers inspires me to seek even richer and more innovative ideas. The ocean, nature and our planet are inexhaustible sources of inspiration for me and, as an artist working for the protection of our oceans and our planet, I want my message to spread around the world.
