The graffiti frottages are documents or “self-declarations”, as the artist defines them as casts of writings and engravings that we are not sure whether they existed or were reproduced by the artist. Traces of comments found on public walls and then brought back to paper through the passage of the pencil are mixed with personal relics of the artist reproduced and cast from the walls of his studio. The intimate and imaginary sphere binds with the physical and collective one: ambiguity tries to play with the concept of fake by posing a question about the natural capacity to convey a message, leaving visual and material evidence of it.
