Her artistic expression has developed through working with metal, particularly titanium, allowing her to construct a language combining purity of design and sobriety of line. In recent years, nature has come to the forefront of her sculptural approach, using the poetry of shapes and colours to evoke the emotions felt in contact with this element that is inseparable from our origins.
Exploring different scales, the light, moving volumes evolve in space and interact with the element of air, as in her unique large-format suspended pieces, ‘Forest’, created during the Takumi residency with Les Ateliers de Paris in Japan with artist Takeshi Nishimura in 2018, or ‘Elévation’, the eponymous name of Baudelaire’s poem, designed for the l’écriture des mondes exhibition presented in Agde in 2019.
She would like to thank Esther Brinkmann, during her training at the Arts Décoratifs de Genève, for the discovery that gave birth to her desire to work in the creation of contemporary jewellery and objects.
Passing on her knowledge is at the heart of her concerns, whether she is working with trainees or teaching, which she did for 11 years at the AFEDAP in Paris until 2006, and since 2019 she has been teaching art and design students at the SEPR in Lyon.
