I explore bamboo.

Its balance, lightness and flexibility

Its mathematics, poetry and sensuality.

I also work with the air and the light.

1955-1998 I was born, I graduated ENSAD (Paris) and I dealt on visual communication

1998: I fall in love with bamboo and begin my research and experience about its infinite resources

2004: I say goodbye to my old life to pursue my passion and take the first step of my "Bamboo Road"

through India, Thailand, Vietnam and Laos where I discover the essence of bamboo.

2005: Meeting Jose Luis Pascual. At KM7, his art space, I hold my first exhibition.

2011: my second research trip take me to Mexico and Central America to investigate bamboo issues

on architecture and structures

2013: February-March in Bali! Where I experience techniques and ideas with amazing bamboos.

Meeting John Hardy. Master of Bamboo. We share a dream and he invite me to teach my bamboo art work at Green School

A great life and bamboo lesson !

2016: exploring in Korea & Taiwan the Ceramic & Bamboo craft.

2017: many projects in Taiwan collaboratively with the NTCRI, National Taiwan Craft Research Institute.
