self-taught photographer, having found my way to through the world of my mother, herself a photographer, I naturally moved towards art photography. which is my "playground" ...

I was able to,à through my exhibitions, allow the viewer to discover, beyond photography of current subjects that hold me in mind; heart, and making it a witness and actor of the information that I wish to defend!!! such as "Abused Women"  , the "Attacks at the Bataclan, against the freedom of d expression...

I also worked on the movement of the body via underwater staging...and everyday situations: dancing, working, reading, which I retranspose in unusual places to make these banal everyday gestures extraordinary!! ! 

Allow the viewer to rethink these situations.

I will exhibit at the end of June at Monaco on  EXPOMETRO (exhibition of collective works)

J, àgrav; through my photographs, the vision leads to   take a position on the subject covered

My approach consists of inviting the viewer to position myself when it comes to the banal scenes of life (dancing, singing, cooking, etc.) that I move to unusual places, and re-appropriate them to become fully aware of them. And no longer see them as banal moments but very present. I  n' I don't like to stay in my comfort zone, photography is, for me, taking a risk. take to enable us to arrive at a final image full of insolence and poetry...my best moments!!!!!

Take the viewer away with emotional emotions childhood, adolescence.... through images reflecting  à its own moments, creating surprise, and that little smile appearing at the corners of the lips and letting go of it. soul towards the poetry of these moments "almost unconsciously forgotten."

I want to show my vision of the world to others. through the emotions that my images send back...emotions that bring back to life the essential, the poetry of a moment, the unexpected of a memory so true of insolence....emotion is the continuity of life. of our soul...
