About

I create images like pages from a diary, mental landscapes, or zones of disturbance — affective, sensitive, unstable. These images absorb and layer my questions, dreams, and the music or literature that surrounds me. I freely mix drawing and painting, often blending in various forms of digital interference. I often include fragments from my own journals or short pieces of fiction. I don’t always know which layer came first. Sometimes, a drawing alone is enough.
Play and experimentation are central to my process.

My work explores intimacy and vulnerability — vertiginous territories.
It is a deeply introspective practice. It can also be read as a distillation of hybrid obsessions, mixing recurring images and motifs that emerge from childhood memories or sleepless nights.I don’t separate my visual work from writing. Each image is potentially linked to a text — whether I choose to reveal it or not.Literature and poetry infuse my work, especially the voices of writers like Jean Rhys, Clarice Lispector, and Adrienne Rich.

Am I self-taught? Partly, yes — I didn’t attend art school.
My “training” came in fragments: at Paris I (Saint-Charles), where a few studio classes were part of my communication and aesthetics curriculum; at Hunter College (New York), where I took creative writing classes with Lily Tolhurst and encountered the performance artist Robbie McCauley; and later, in classes with Fabienne Oudart at the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris, then with Vincent Bizien at the Ateliers des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris.
