Originally from Brittany, I now live far from “home”… although that depends on what you place behind that word. For over ten years, my life has been woven between different places, different encounters, different ways of inhabiting the world.

​​

I first worked as a nurse in international solidarity, where I came to understand that care can take many forms: to care is, above all, to listen. To contribute to the integrity of each person. To create a space where one feels seen, acknowledged… respected. It is in this continuity that I turned to photography, film and writing.

​​

Through my journey, I have been struck by the effects of cultural erasure… but also by the strength of those who continue to carry forward their knowledge and heritage. Living in contexts shaped by colonial histories, I began to question reflexes I once believed to be neutral: ways of seeing, naming and telling stories… deeply rooted in Western ways of thinking.

​​

Today, I document the stories entrusted to me ; narratives of transmission, struggle and identity… while continuing to question my own position within them.

​​

These stories do not belong to me: they are co-created over time, through multiple voices, with those who choose to share them. My work is to enter these spaces with care and to give an account of what unfolds ; without trying to define it, nor to translate it entirely. And more often than not, it simply requires staying a little (or much) longer than expected…​

 

These encounters and the stories that emerge from them have transformed the way I see  - and continue to do so. Step by step, I am learning to unlearn, to look differently. The world we share is not simple. It is shaped by forces, fragilities, imbalances and contradictions. Neither perfect nor fixed… simply alive.
