Beauvais, capital of the Oise department, and place of my birth in 1963.

Perhaps this is where it all began, in this fine arts workshop from the city, where, every Wednesday, I paint, draw, sculpt. Learning and knowledge will continue in Paris a few years later in a school of applied arts (Elysa Lemonnier), then another of photography (ACE3P).

Diplomas in hand, I am an assistant freelance for photographers, then sell photo equipment in a large Parisian brand. I miss the greenery, and so I'm leaving for Tours to work for an audiovisual production company. Three years later, destination Grenoble in an advertising photography studio.

At 33, I decided to set up as an author photographer. I then create images of nature, architecture, illustration, portraits, for the press and publishing, and teach in a graphic design school. About ten years ago, through encounters in the world of contemporary improvisation dance and the world of visual creation, my professional activity evolved, transformed into much research. more personal. Thus, I am invited to collaborate with contemporary dance companies as an associated artist, make films, project "mapping" images on stage, participate in projects with amateur audiences, perform with dancers.

During all these years, I have never stopped exploring the territories of creation, mixing photographic and video images. Today, I also work a lot in my workshop as a visual artist, to rediscover this vital need to touch and transform matter. I therefore do not stop at a particular medium or practice, but choose them in order to best concretize the images of my imaginary library, to make visible my view of the world.
