Inspired by Nature, by the unconscious, she who thinks a lot, extracts herself from pure thought to sublimate it in an abstraction by letting go where she is. the intelligence of the hands and the instinct of composition will take control. She fills sketchbooks and sketches. but paints directly on his canvases, in complete freedom. gesture. She is always researching, reading a lot, interested in other artists and exhibitions.

« I am a dreamer in a difficult world. When I paint, when I am at ease; both alone and connected, it is a very powerful feeling. »
This side This dreamer has a counterpart, that of revolt, present in me since childhood: Born a girl, I never accepted what I wanted. to keep quiet as I was asked, I then had to navigate a society rough like the majority women. My painting contains all this and more, bursts of anger, a word that refuses the imposed limit, a wonder for the plant and the elements, a desire powerful freedom above all, a freedom which demands respect, demands and takes me towards new pictorial and poetic paths ever more forward.
My creations are deployed throughout the world. through lines and curves drawn in a brisk or slow amplitude. It’s in this gesture, through this variable amplitude that my sensitivity crystallizes; and my intuitions for both define and illustrate the inspiration of a presence at the same time. through an abstract expressionist form and testify to an intuitive thought, sublimation of my perception of life at a glance. through gestures both casual and necessary which gives shape to my emotions and sensitive perception of the world. Captured by the act of creation, I instinctively give substance to what is happening. the pictorial material to end up becoming one with it. My gestures are free, intuitive.
My semi-abstract, organic painting, the convolutions formed on the canvas, the colors participate in a universal language, that of pure sensation. It is through this process that that the emotional dimension of my artistic work becomes perceptible as much in the contemplation of the surface as in the evocation or the discourse that the work induces. The elements of life are the sensitive common thread of my work and my place as a woman artist, shaman poet, uses words such as the visual, sounds and relationships with plants, the links between humans and other living things to nourish creation, meaning and poetry of life.
I am a feminist artist, an ecologist and my painting is organic and shot through with the importance of making us feel how essential the elements of life that are air, l’ water, the earth and its plants and fire/light. I consider that this respect for the living is a feminist position and as a female artist I feel extremely concerned about this. both by the place given to women and how this world will evolve in the face of major climatic challenges which are very political.
