Graphic designer and artist ♥ I live and work in Marseille, France.

[ORIGIN]
In 2005, I test for the first time pop-up technique, by analyzing pop-up books in order to grasp all the mysteries and understand the mechanisms. Since then, the "paper art" became my main playground that I explored without moderation.

[THE PROCESS]
All items are handcrafted by me. I use a plotter to cut paper. Each sheet is inserted by hand, one by one, into the machine. The cutting sketch is drawn before on computer. Each cut is then removed from the sheet and then assembled and glued by hand to the support. This is a process that requires patience and meticulousness.

[PAPER]
Passionate by paper, I collect it in all its forms. To make my paper artworks, I work mostly with luxury papers. It is necessary to use good quality paper to ensure the strength and sustainability of the piece. The Arjowiggins brand is by far my favorite with a wide choice of materials and colors. For needs less expensive, I use the range of Canson Iris Vivaldi for its silky texture and choice of bright colors. I like to mix different types of paper to give texture to my images.

[THE BOUTIQUE]
On Etsy, I expose my personal creations, unique or limited edition releases. I also offers a range of creative stationery: pop-up cards or paper cut, box of pop-up cards to make yourself. I also realize, on request, all types of paper items to dress your daily events. Contact me for more information.
