For this artist still attached to an obvious Platonic conception of art, "painting 10 metres of canvas with a small brush is provocation." Indeed, Khaled Takreti paints every detail with application before making this love of work well done disappear under a uniform layer of colour. In this way he manages to reproduce a distance, a detachment that borders on abstraction. It is as if the artist silently sacrificed human relations on the altar of appearances.
