I'm interested in the fundamentals of photography, which etymologically means to paint, draw or write with light. I use light as both a subject and a raw material. Its shifting, immaterial nature is at the root of my interest in natural light, which is part of a more global philosophical inquiry into time and the notion of impermanence. In an era marked by photography's overabundance and dematerialization, I explore the image's evanescent aspect as much as the provisional state of the subject. During my residency, I intend to explore different book forms and reflect on the process of designing a printed work. Each of these parameters will be observed in an attempt to understand how they can modify our perception of the photographic image, depending on its support, size, layout and the sequence it is a part of.

Hailing from a village in France's Val-d'Oise region, I've lived among the vestiges of the Impressionists, built tree houses and observed the changing face of nature. During my studies in Paris and Quebec City, I developed a strong interest in book design, typography and traditional printing. My passion for artistic creation, experimentation and shifting points of view led me to pursue a MFA, as part of which I developed a singular approach to photography, rooted in the very foundations of the medium. Since then, I have carried out creative residencies and exhibited my research in several artist-run centres in Quebec. I collaborate with museum institutions and university or independent publishing houses to design printed works. I also teach visual arts to the next generation on the north shore of the Ottawa River.
