L'invisible me fascine et m'interroge : que se passe-t-il autour de moi, en moi ? Qu'est-ce qui nous émeut ? Nous lie ? Quelles sont ces images nocturnes qui viennent tout droit de mon subconscient ?
Le dessin et la peinture sont des langages qui me permettent de communiquer avec moi-même et les autres. M'attarder sur mes émotions, mes liens sociaux, mes rêves,me permettent de les comprendre et de me familiariser avec eux. En les expulsant sur le support, je permets à cet invisible d’être visuel et immortelle.
En fixant ma recherche sur le papier, je crée un pont entre la notion d’invisible -éphémère et intérieure- et l’image -matérielle et durable.
L’objectif de ce travail est de retranscrire visuellement les ressentis liés à une histoire et un lieu.
Je m'amuse à créer ma propre symbolique visuelle dans mes œuvres afin de brouiller les pistes, ce qui me permet de garder un bout de jardin secret et de pouvoir offrir à l'autre l'histoire qu'il veut voir.
Inspirée par les Nabis, mes peintures sont essentiellement constituées de l’observation de réel, de la nature et de mes rêves, mais aussi de détails photographiques et de l’Histoire de l’Art.
La littérature et la musique tiennent une place importante dans mes procédés. Je les considère comme une nourriture indispensable à l’ouverture de mes horizons imaginaires.
“Notre perception extérieure est un rêve du dedans qui se trouve en harmonie avec les choses du dehors”

The invisible fascinates me and makes me wonder: what's going on around me, inside me? What moves us? Binds us together? What are these nocturnal images that come straight from my subconscious?
Drawing and painting are languages that allow me to communicate with myself and others. Dwelling on my emotions, my social ties and my dreams allows me to understand them and become familiar with them. By expelling them onto the medium, I allow this invisible to be visual and immortal.
By fixing my research on paper, I create a bridge between the notion of the invisible - ephemeral and interior - and the image - material and lasting.
The aim of this work is to transcribe visually the feelings associated with a story and a place.
I have fun creating my own visual symbolism in my work, so as to blur the lines, which allows me to keep a piece of my secret garden and offer others the story they want to see.

Inspired by the Nabis, my paintings are essentially made up of observations of reality, nature and my dreams, as well as photographic details and art history. Literature and music play an important role in my work, and I see them as essential nourishment for opening up my imaginary horizons.
