My first artistic works tended to illustrate the vulnerability and the state of alteration of the modern individual against the digital light. I wanted to question our own materiality and existence through weakened bodies, stuck between visible and invisible, presence and absence. The deconstructed, fragmented, illegible images served my intention to criticize the dogmas of modernism.

My personal interests and concerns have led my work to question human nature and its evolution. Through constrained, violent gestures and deranged movements, the restricted bodies illustrate our inward conflict between humanity and animality. I wish to question the role of this conflict in our ability to do Other (living differently than according to modern dictates), and therefore in our responsibility to the current evolution of the world.

"Le caddie" is my first cinematographic project. It puts my last interrogations described in an everyday reality and tries to illustrate the difficulty of going against an enslaving society.

My future cinematographic projects follow my artistic inspirations and interests, and have the will to be an assortment of personal feelings and critical reflexions.
