For Victor, painting has something meditative and therapeutic. The activity requires his full attention and dedication, liberating his mind. His work is based on emotional projection, he tries to reach an emotion, feel it, live it and carve this onto the canvas. In the application phase, he treats the entire surface with brushes but also materials and tools that are not generally found in art shops, or recycled. He is trying to utilise tools differently in order to find new textures and relief. Working since 2010 in confined areas, the notions of oppression and the need to escape are omnipresent in his work. His emotions are his motivation; the feeling of a place, a lived memory, a poem or an idea. Travelling, taking time to wander and spending time learning about new cultures feeds his creativity as much as music, cinema and litterature. Since the end of 2024, he works from a space he built in Caochangdi, Beijing, a loft in an old-warehouse. A new atelier where he has the space to freely express himself, explore new themes, techniques, and welcome visitors.
