Self-taught at the beginning, I then refined my vision and technique at the Ateliers Beaux-Arts de Paris, then during artistic residencies with inspiring artists. For nearly ten years, I worked behind the camera, exploring light and frames as windows open to the world. Documentary cinema, centered on humans and the stories of everyday life, offered me an intense and visceral means of expression. Over time, the need to create caught up with me, an inner urgency pushed me to reconnect with a more personal expression.
The transition to drawing and painting then became obvious, almost a necessity. Pencil in hand and notebook under my arm, I began to walk the streets, the café terraces, the landscapes, capturing through the lines an ode to the contemplation of the living. Inspired by meetings with other designers, painters and creators, I have spent these last years capturing the essence of the world around me, outside the sets, in the intimacy of drawing.
Born to a father who was a painter and sculptor and a mother who was a model maker, my artistic journey is part of a family history steeped in art and visual sensitivity. This immersion shaped my view of graphic art, spaces, architecture, and creation in public spaces. In 2022, I enriched my approach by studying illustration and storytelling, notably at the Duperré school in Paris. The following year, an artistic journey lasting more than a year opened me up to new perspectives, leading me to significant encounters and projects where art unfolded along the way.
“an artistic quest where each work becomes a passage between worlds.”
Today, two distinct universes coexist in my work. On the one hand, a fantastic world populated by childish characters evolving in imaginary forests and cities, embodying memory and time; on the other, a figurative universe, resolutely realistic, anchored in the portrait and marked by a documentary sensitivity. The latter draws its strength from cultural fascinations and profound existential questions. Together, these two universes form an exploration of collective memory and the intimate, an artistic quest where each work becomes a passage between worlds.
