I was born in Oloron-Sainte-Marie, at the foot of the Pyrenees.
I studied for three years at the Beaux-Arts in Biarritz, beside the Atlantic Ocean.
I completed my training in Toulouse, on the banks of the Garonne.
After which I enrolled at Le Fresnoy, in Tourcoing, in the middle of nothing.
Because of the diversity of these environments I developed the idea that elements which escape formatting systems are rare, but that emotions remain. We cannot speak them in words, and that’s a good thing.
