Biographie
Highly crafted and distinctly mysterious, my embroidery practice explores the representation of abstract concepts; I attempt to illustrate what doesn’t exist in a physical form. The interpretations become intimate and filled with imagination, at once vulnerable, fragile and precious.

The embroidery is removed from its traditional support to adorn plastic and metal. Being trained as a sculptor, I juxtapose the materials and techniques to create an illusion of depth and to reconsider the definition of two and three-dimensional compositions. At the end, the pieces present symbolic allegories and literary allusions according to developed themes in collaboration with participants or from autobiographical inspirations.
