ABOUT HER The Sea is her destiny. It's in the artist's choice of hometown, it's in her name, it's in her sign of the zodiac, Pisces. Fascinated by pulsating life, it was food that inspired her early work as graphic designer. Water is the muse of her paintings. Water is movement, light, weightlessness. It is the domain of fish, but also other animals and people. Compressed, stretched, free from constraints, marked by a different corporeality. In the water, the bottom becomes the sky and all creatures fly. Everything is transformed. A silent, unquiet world, where fishes are as elusive as thoughts and clouds, and nothing remains as it is.
