I am born in France. In 2011, I joined the National School of the Landscape of Versailles for Landscape Architecture after winning a garden design competition in the city of Beaune.

My passion for drawing evolved along with my dreams of traveling.Drawing is a story that you narrate to yourself –a means of arranging memories, images, and sensations in various colors and lines. In traveling one sees places with different lenses depending on your past experiences. Both drawing and traveling involves creating new worlds.

Most of my works are drawn in public spaces –parks, lakes, and walking streets– as I see drawing as a dialogue.
When I draw, I don’t represent forms, landscapes or objects. When I draw, I draw smiles, silence and curiosity.

I perceive drawing as a way of perceiving space. It is a means to understand the environment and how colors and shapes interact to create an “image”, a recognizable landscape
