Inspired by the architecture of the Piazza d'Italia painted by Giorgio de Chirico (1888-1978), the two artists imagined the sets as symbolic objects represented by arches, columns, monumental stairs, as the only visible traces of a city floating in the desert.
Animated by fiction, design and cinema, I wanted to participate in the construction of these sets made of cardboard, wood and plaster. I had the opportunity to design and build one of the boats of the shooting as well as to participate in the making of the costumes and accessories.
The short film is expected to be broadcast in 2023.

Au bord de l'eau is a collection of nostalgic thoughts of the beautiful season in the form of a love correspondence with X. It is presented in the form of 10 heterogeneous postcards, whose images were elected by the algorithm of my phone. At the water's edge is the title that Apple has chosen as a theme for these photographs that I took during several summers. I wanted to make them poetic by words and divert them by using the codes of the picturesque postcard of vacations.

In January 2019, ENSAB welcomed the Agence Nationale de Psychanalyse Urbaine (ANPU) within its walls. Investing the hall of the school, it proposed a parenthesis to the students that it had entitled ENSAB on the couch. The principle of the game was the following: "Sit down in a chair, answer all these questions while letting yourself be invaded by a sort of torpor. The questions took absurd forms leading to the personification of the institution in the eyes of the student. This made it possible to draw a portrait with almost human features. Thus, the ENSAB would be at times "attentive, warm, benevolent, maternal" but also "severe, traumatic, demanding, perfectionist". This event marked me a lot in the freedom of expression that it proposed and in the accuracy and the emotion that it exalted. Thus, through this artist's book I wished to make an act of reminiscence of this event by realizing an object of archive which would be always consultable.
(Théâtre des rêveurs)
Theater for dreamers
Workshop sous la direction de Can Onaner & Mathieu Le Barzic
Les Horizons, Rennes, France
January 2019
Through the theme of theater, we wanted to highlight the creative process in architecture through the imagination and dreams. As children, we aspire to a certain utopia that disappears once we are adults. We took as our inspiration the architecture of the circus to relate this lost imagination. "The circus is a small piece of closed arena, suitable for oblivion. For a time, more or less brief, it allows us to stop thinking about ourselves, to dissolve in wonder and bliss, to be transported by mystery." (Henry Miller, The Smile at the Foot of the Ladder). The circus designates a type of performance as well as an architecture. It is a place in which the spectator is close to the actor, he must participate in the game and anchor himself in the décor. By its theatrical location in the public space, it is an obvious stage that suggests an installation. Located at the foot of the Horizons, the set is composed of buildings that overlook us, colorful play structures, arches, cypresses and a hexagon-shaped sandbox. Similar to a small merry-go-round, a circus or a playful structure, our device borrows codes from an architecture of play, of childhood.
