Youssef Boubekeur seeks to reveal, with the precision of his monochrome brushstroke of universal blue, the interior shades of light and shadow, defying the divisions between man and animal to trace behavioral analogies and remind us that the path from savagery to civilization is not always linear. His work questions the human condition in the light of animal otherness. Domesticating the animal within us, reestablishing a sense of belonging, an imperative addressed to humanity in an age of hypermodernity that promotes the reign of the instinctual and encourages predation.
