Birth to Fontainebleau in 1964. Childhood in Morocco, discovery of calligraphy, materials and colors.

Graduated from the Departmental School of Architecture of Volvic,  I am a stone engraver, calligrapher, dancer and performer.

Lapidary engraver based in Puy-de-Dôme as an art craftsman from 1996 to 1996. 2002, trained in calame, calligraphy becomes the only resource in my path to create lettering and ornaments for decoration, signage and advertising. funeral engraving.

Moving into L' Ile de Ré, start of the exploration on the expression of movement inspired by the work of Georges Mathieu and Fabienne Verdier. The instantaneous act calligraphy justifies a change of support that I adopt in this increasingly spontaneous journey. A new path that engages my dancing body.

 

 

 

 

Artistic approach

Dance is my primary expression, drawing my body into creative emotion since childhood. It was with lapidary engraving that I explored art. models and features. It is with calligraphy that I establish the grace of shapes and lines.

Place the body in the sensitive and access to the state of harmony. The mind and body connected in order to make visible through calligraphy a subject, a motif, a writing, a music transcribed in the spontaneity of the artist. movement in a flowing line which without being retouched expresses the contour, volume, shape and rhythm of the breath. I access this unit in the moment of creation thanks to my process of visualization, creative maturation and gestural research. Leaving the workshop I share my calligraphic and scenic creations. Public celebrations.
