I am an artist, sculptor, and designer from Reunion Island, now based in Marseille, in the south of France. My primary medium is ceramic, and my work focuses on the emotionnal, aiming to make the public feel what I am experiencing. Moved by the shapes of the elements, I draw inspiration from the black cliffs of my native island and the dazzling whiteness of Marseille’s creeks where I now live.

I seek to capture the movement of life in abstract shapes, something that connects us both to each other and to the natural world universally. An emotion when watching a storm unfold, or when floating in a big wave just before it crashes. I strive for my work to appear alive, without resembling any figurative thing.
