Artistic approach

Influenced by popular atistic movements and surrealism, passionate about mythology, legends, occultism, philosophy, symbolist poetry, human sciences and counterculture,  she paints and draws dreamlike and symbolist universes. She also creates statuettes of mythological inspiration. All these works speak directly to the unconscious and the imagination. They nevertheless claim a humanist background close to Nature. From this ecological perspective, the   Deedee's modelings are carried out in detail. from a paste of its own making à based on compressed paper and plastic waste, non-energy consuming. She also writes poetry and prose, and her drafts also end up in modeling pastes. The volume creations are therefore small works of verse and ideas blended into phantasmagorical and colorful creatures.
