Born in France, I grew up between the Alps and a small island in the Pacific Ocean, places that shaped my relationship to nature and craft.

I graduated in 2018 in Lyon, from the School of Fine Arts, specializing in Textile & Print Design, and I am now based in Rotterdam working as a hand weaver, designer, and educator.

Rag rug making sits at the core of my practice, allowing me to work with second-hand fabrics, ropes and explore sustainability, slow production, and contemporary interpretations of traditional techniques.
