Hailing from a modest industrial town in France's northeast, I grew up in the vibrant 1980s, immersed in kitsch and pop culture as my earliest artistic sparks. A profound shift came later, drawing me to formal art training at La Sorbonne in Paris—my home base ever since. There, I honed a versatile practice spanning oil painting, drawing, and mixed media like etching and image transfers.
Inspired by masters such as Sargent and Zorn's luminous realism, Hammershøi's quiet intimacy, and the bold experimentation of Polke and Rauschenberg, I blend technical precision with psychological depth.
My practice centers on intimate, nocturnal portraits that reveal the unspoken emotional depths of those closest to me. Through precise realism and symbolic elements—like enveloping forests as personal sanctuaries—I depict solitary figures bearing invisible weights with quiet resilience.
I focus on everyday domestic scenes masking absurdity or profound inner turmoil and mental retreats from relentless responsibilities and hidden anguish, where vulnerability persists unseen by the world.
Drawing from personal connections and contemporary human narratives, my work invites contemplation of private endurance, transforming subtle gestures into profound revelations of the human spirit in an attempt to honor these fragile, undisclosed inner worlds.
