I am a French artist born in Northern France. I currently live and work in Normandy, France. Oil painting is my main medium.
First a biologist, I left the corporate world several years ago to dedicate my time entirely to art.
Through my paintings, my goal is to raise public awareness towards the climate crisis. To do so, I use poetic yet provocative visions in a dreamlike universe where I combine hyper-surrealism and symbolism. I believe in the power of art as a catalyst for people to reflect on their agency to the world.
