Biographie
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 !
