One morning
Initiated at 7 years of chess by a master of the discipline, she played at an excellent level until the age of 20 years.
After a literary course, she spent ten years in the private sector before returning to law school and joining the public sector.
It is in adolescence, thanks to a neighbor photographer who offers him one of its silver barrels, that she is initiated to photography. First, she tries out portraiture and street photography, then turns to heritage and landscape photography.
By focusing on the European architectural and artistic heritage, she tries to remind us that the human spirit, when guided by the pursuit of excellence, can succeed in giving a formal idea of genius.
More generally, she tries to capture the nuances of light, their ephemeral poetry, to fix on an image this fragile moment, because temporary, during which something eternal seems to have manifested itself.
