My creative approach is mainly based on the exploration of materials. I believe that each material has its own language and a story of its own, which is why I constantly seek to make them resonate in my work.

I like to spend a lot of time experimenting with different materials, looking for their complementarity and their creative potential. Whether it's brass wire, concrete or wood reclaimed from nature, each material inspires me to create something unique and majestic that reflects my artistic vision.

In addition to the hammering and rolling techniques, I have also integrated the creation of sculpted concrete bases into my creative process. This technique allows me to have great freedom to create personalized supports for my pieces.

Regarding the wood, I am very attached to the use of wood recovered from nature as well as wood burned according to the Japanese technique of shou sugi ban. I like the idea of giving a second life to these materials and giving them a special place in my creations.

By combining these different techniques, I hope to create works that tell a unique story and that are imbued with a real harmony between the materials.

My creations are available in a variety of pieces, ranging from soliflores, dandelions, small country bouquets to suspensions and brass jewelry. Each of my creations is unique and tells a story, driven by the materials I use.

I am particularly proud of my soliflores, which are veritable floral sculptures. I design each piece with a delicate and refined design that enhances the natural beauty of each flower. For my jewelry, I use different brass wires, of different sizes to create unique shapes. I appreciate the raw and ethical side of brass, but I also ensure that my jewelry is delicate and elegant, so that it can be worn with pleasure and pride.
