Maxime learned

that some years leave a deeper mark than others.

I chose paper for this portrait.

Fragile, sensitive, it retains every trace.

The pigments — charcoal, ochre, wine —

soak in like memories in a lifetime.

Nothing is perfectly smooth.

And that’s precisely where the story appears.

Paul is not a perfect face.

It’s a face

that has traversed time.
