I was born in 1979 in Paris and I live and work in Marseille as a sound artist, performer and electroacoustic composer. I am passionate about field recordings, which I capture with traditional or experimental setups in urban, natural or industrial contexts around the world. I explore space, ritual and ecology, and I weave my field recordings into free improvisation using a digital real-time sound processing platform. I seek textures and rhythms from in-situ material, creating immersive works for specific projects and moments. I have been recognized as a laureate by the French Institute (Hors-les-Murs) in 2014 and by Fondation Camargo in 2020, and my practice blends scientific observation with sensitive auditory transmission, from the banks of the Rhône to cosmic scales.
