Art student based in Paris looking for a part-time job with an artist in Amsterdam. *dancer *musician My inspirations come from the memory of the body, from the heritage, then from the structure, whether architectural, corporeal or natural. I wonder about energy imprints, vibrations and soul exchanges. The notion of transmission and transgenerational are constituent elements of my work, I seek to illustrate the phenomenon of emotivity then the emotional biases that can result from it. I wish to register my work in an introspective desire, to return to the roots. through these multiple experiences, I explore shapes, bodies as well as their exchanges and then their influences. From this, I make different interpretations, personification of these energies, while experimenting with these representations through different mediums. Through painting and drawing, I seek to define my intuitions, fictional characters and bodies. Through video and photography, I seek to give an atmosphere to a situation, to concretize it in a fictitious reality. Through dance, I give substance to my emotions, to a character that I interpret. I feed my research with the help of various philosophical texts, Socrates or Pascal for example. From films by Stanley Kubrick, David Fincher or Gaspar Noe. Visual artists like Abdelkader Benchamma, Giorgia O’Keeffe, Erik Nussbicker or even choreographers like Mourad Merzouki or Martha Graham
