Through my different projects, whose the form or the materials may be varied but however keeping a certain methodology based on the spontaneousness of the present moment, I tried to reconnect pleasure with civic commitment. By flirting with a certain imaginary censorship, the subject that I discuss in my work, such as societal inequalities, the swiss position facing immigration or the evolution of the role of culture, may not be explicitly perceived. Nevertheless, the invitation to take part in most of the cases in my work and the surrealist appearance of my practice to a task well involved in the basis of the question of why. Each project possesses a multitude of layers which juxtaposes during creative development through different media and comes to groups of a selected ideas or several themes. My researches are based on notion of integration of our cohabitation and our way of living. By determining no causality, I give the freedom to the viewer to create her/his own opinion on the subject itself and to think about her/his own impact as a human.
