Website
My images offer an unfiltered view of the sick body, in its changes and transformations; a reset of the 'body system' for an update to a 'Body 2.0'. They give to see that the human being is trying to hide and forget, returning him to its mortal condition, potentially broken or out of order. The project also has the will to question the public about the acceptance of the body of others, especially when their physical integrity is compromised: is it possible, looking at this body, to see a human being, or is our perception limited by the disease and its consequences?

Biography
Graduated from the School of fine arts in Metz, the main part of my work is based on the idea of human being refication.
Human body is then considered as an object:
As a «tank of replacement parts», it is recyclable.
Tatooed, with make-up, altered, it is aesthetic; advertising medium, it is attractive.
Prostituted, it is marketable, an object of property and entertainment.
Its neries (tatoos, clothes, and so on...) make it a part of a family, a gang, a social class.
Employed, it’s a market value, interchangeable even disposable according to its productivity.
