Acédia: a state of pain and affliction linked to a lack of motivation, weariness and disenchantment.

“Laziness has become a common thread in my practice. For me, it is first and foremost a means of production, since the time freed from responsibilities and remunerative work is the time I invest freely. So it’s by focusing on random elements that are both significant and insignificant, but which find no other link than a kind of everyday chance, that I’ve built up this collection of images. My mind wanders, gets lost, focuses on an element, gives it importance and then resumes its movement.”
