Interview of the Office for Visual Arts of the French Institute, 2020

My work is protean, spanning mediums such as fabric, embroidery, photography, sculpture, and installation. This research, grounded in mise en abyme and image stratification, investigates the corporeality of forms, deeply engaging with themes of transformation, materiality, and organic cycles. I am drawn to organic shapes, from the infinitesimally small to the immense, probing the origins and essence of matter itself. The tension between the lightness and volatility of the image and the inherent gravity of material mirrors a dynamic antagonism—a fluid space where opposites coexist and interact.

Fabric and embroidery are central to my work, chosen for their rich symbolic and tactile qualities, allowing images to manifest across multiple levels. Moving between mediums, as one might shift between physical states, serves as a way to fragment and transform the image, approaching it as if it were a living organism. Each medium introduces a new layer of meaning, reflecting the continuous flow of the world and evoking what Romain Rolland termed the “oceanic feeling”—a profound immersion that transcends time and space, connecting us to an expansive, interconnected whole.

This exploration of hybrid states and organic forms captures a complexity that mirrors the world’s ongoing transformation, where origins dissolve and renew in an endless cycle.
