''Poursuite du merveilleux'' is part of the artist series Self Romance. With this serie, the artist wants to talk about inner life, and through his personal experience tries to grasp the essence of the relationship we have with ourselves. Depicting intimate emotions and universal themes. Deeply touched by some episodes of ''Self romance'', he wanted to find a body and mind symbolic to portrait his own introspection. Setting a symbiotic relationship between a character and its conscience. Self-awareness, mindfulness, dealing with emotions and traumas, in his paintings, the artist explores his inner dialog. In this ever elusive ideal relationship with the self, he decided to represent the ''mind'', conscious or sub-conscious, with a tiger. Those tigers appeared in his dreams for many years before coming onto his paintings, always as a peaceful figure. As an ally. In Jungian psychology, tigers symbolise strength and courage, embodying the psyche's instinctual aspects. It can also represent the unconscious forces that we may not be aware of, the shadows. In chinese culture, it symbolises power and a great deal of nerve. it is considered to be an embodiment of “yang” – or positive – energy, the tiger is a solar animal associated with the sun, summer and fire. This fearless creature is also revered as a symbol protecting from disasters and evils. This series explores the ever changing relationship between the self and the subconscious, represented by a lone figure and a tiger traversing vast, dreamlike landscapes. The tiger, initially a distant presence, gradually shifts from an observer to a companion—sometimes guiding, sometimes mirroring, sometimes challenging the figure. Through these paintings, Victor invites the viewer into a quiet dialogue on self-awareness, inner conflict, and the search for harmony within.
