I am a French and Canadian artist currently based in Rennes, France.
My practice is interdisciplinary yet it is rooted in a photographic language.
Through image-making, writing, and installation, I explore the ephemeral and the places we pass through. Light, the multisensory, and the different ways we interact with our environment are key aspects of my research. Through a phenomenological approach, I observe and try to capture what merely passes by — everything we don’t see if we don't take the time to look at it. I seek to evoke a multisensorial experience through words, images, and objects — our bodies in space and light passing by as a clock. The question I ask is: how can we represent what we cannot fully perceive? How can we visually translate the intangible and the sensitive? My artistic practice is a translation of these moments of liminality into multimedia installations — a materialization of the intangible, an emphasis on the overlooked.
I am interested in space: the space our body takes in a room or in a landscape, the space we're from and the space we inhabit. Space as a way to speak of the unknown, but also the familiar — and sometimes, of distance. Space as something we move through, as somewhere we go to, as something we miss or long for (place). The space between two images, between two sentences — the space of interpretation, of doubt, of ambiguity.
In my work, I try to make room for these intersections, to make the imaginary into a space of its own.
Increasingly, narration is taking its place in my work. Moments of interpretation left to the viewer between two images, photographs suspended in time, prompting us to question what happened just before, what will happen just after. I'm interested in the spatialization of a story, in installation as a narrative tool. In my images, I create photographic stagings, cinematic lighting, and indistinct characters in order to navigate the blur and build a narrative driven by suggestion.
