Démarche

 

Trained in visual arts, architecture and planning, I like to produce artworks that contribute to the functionality and conviviality of public spaces. I see the creation of public artworks as an opportunity to introduce dynamism into our built environments. I thus play with the boundary between art and furniture design in order to diversify the functional offer as well as the way people interact with their surroundings.

In this way, my works offer new forms, new postures, but also new perceptions. The bench function, recurring in my production, is often the one through which I invite the spectators to a more physical and intimate contact with my creations. I also play with the displacement of the gaze between that directed towards the artwork and that directed towards the environment once the individual is seated.
