Life fascinates me.
Textures and patterns excite me.
Sculpting makes me happy.
Destructive human activities push me into despair.
Emotions drive me insane.
Creating art balances everything out.
My work is an ode to life, where plants and fungi meet insects, animals and minerals.
These encounters are growing in a colorful swirl of diversity, and the erratic growth develops on found objects, in a dialogue between humanity and nature.
Both are linked and it makes no sense to create an artificial barrier of tar between humans and the mud. By destroying our environment, we are destroying ourselves.
The objects are always thrifted and often trash, the most direct and visible impact of human activities on our planet.
The plants observe us, waiting to see if we will manage the environmental crisis we have created.
Yet, science, art and abstract thinking make human life worth saving. So it’s up to us to find an equilibrium between our activities, and our desire to thrive intellectually and culturally, without completely destroying our very home.

Miniature Food Art To Make You Smile
As a kid I used to play with Barbie dolls and would make them furniture and food out of clay. I didn't know it yet, but those were the first step towards my passion for sculpting in miniature.
And indeed, in summer 2007, out of pure boredom and seeking the internet, I stumbled upon miniature food.
I tried many things over the years, painting, drawing, beading, knitting, sewing. And also I enjoy doing all kinds of arts and crafts, it's the sculpting that is visceral love to me.
Now sculpting and polymer clay are the essence of my life. My work focuses on the right combination of colors and the exact representation of textures.
I've become also quite interested in photography through my work, so that might be another turning point of my life, someday :)
PetitPlat is a wordplay between "petit plat" which in French is an expression we use to talk about good meals, and literally "petit plat", "petit" meaning "small" and "plat" meaning "plate".
