My illustrations are a combination and manipulation of spontaneous drawings, photography, typography. Nowadays computers dictate our lives but I also love to use real elements, handwritten lettering and handcrafted cut-outs to produce a deeply human and real trace. I work with the photographer Sophie Etchart. I love her work and the confrontation between our 2 worlds.
Graphic design is my way to express my emotions, my feelings, my mood. Life is can be a tragedy but you can see beauty in the chaos. So I try to create images they are strong, powerful, poetic, full of raw emotion. In the future I hope to keep extremely passionate about what I do. I want to collaborate with talented people. I want to re-invent each day my own vision of the world.
A sentence that I like.
