In 2016, she participated in the artistic residency with the L'armacca artillerie collective at the Hotel Pasteur in Rennes. At the same time, she practices watercolor and inks on her own and regularly exhibits her personal works in her region.

Passionate about decorative arts, comics and architecture, her ink illustrations open the door to dreamlike and nostalgic realms where nature still occupies the leading role. She is currently participating in a comic book project with screenwriter Tarek and an exhibition with Vincent Pompetti is scheduled for this year 2021 in a contemporary art gallery in Bourges and Rennes at L'atelier Noir Noir. She has also just joined the JPHT gallery in Paris and will participate in a collective exhibition at the Marché Dauphine (Saint-Ouen) on the occasion of the thirtieth anniversary of Gainsbourg's death.
