I am a French/American multi-disciplinary visual artist whose work revolves around the exploration of contemporary issues within the digital world. Through extensive research and keen observation, I strive to unravel the intricacies and functionality of our societies. My artistic vision is centered on capturing the essence of our societal structural balance and its potential future tremors.
With a broad spectrum of interests, I delve into diverse topics, seeking to understand and portray their significance through art. From cultural phenomena to technological advancements, my focus lies in translating these matters into artistic metaphors that resonate with viewers. By transforming my studies into various mediums, such as paintings, digital animations, and installations, I aim to foster intellectual and visual connections with people.
My ultimate goal is to create thought-provoking pieces that evoke a profound understanding of the contemporary world, encouraging meaningful dialogue and reflection on the intricate interplay of our digital societies. Each artwork serves as a mirror, reflecting the intricacies of our lives and inspiring discussions about our shared future.
