My approach is wandering.

She balances between all forms of plastic expression: figurative, abstract, minimalist, sometimes expressionist.

It feeds on the past and the present to follow its path, that of my sensitive life.

From my perceptions of the world, from my experiences, everything touches me, and becomes a subject that I exploit. Over several years in series, sometimes simultaneously or in retakes with hindsight, and a new vision.

Like a phenomenon of serendipity, things are often given to me to see.

Thus, for the principle of the "re-presentation" of the object, by trying to find the plastic translation of a bowl on a cardboard and collagraphy matrix, the first print obtained immediately appeared to me in the form of a breast that I named Sein-bol, the beginning of a long series of monotypes and paintings where the breasts live their life, intimately linked to mine, according to my favorites, and tributes to artists with whom I feel related. With painting and engraving, I welcome and pick the color of memories, the black and white of the future, of fiction, unrolling the thread of my personal mythology.

Only the gaze counts, mine first, then that of the one who perceives it. This is my daily challenge.
