A self-taught photographer passionate about the wet plate collodion process, I create images where the feminine and the botanical echo one another in a subtly crafted composition. In the manner of a conductor leading a work where no false note can be replayed, each photograph becomes absolutely unique.

“The essential model for me is still the painter, the craftsman, who has all the tools and all the necessary materials at hand, and who knows how to create the object from beginning to end. This remains more or less possible with photography.”

Jeff Wall

“I have a reputation for being a nice, polite girl, but in fact I need to maintain my anger, my stress, my frustrations to continue creating.”
Cindy Sherman

“It is very difficult to find a theme today. You have to look around you and ask yourself what the meaning of your life is.” Boris Mikhailov
