I am a multidisciplinary artist investigating perception and reality through film, visual art and design. 
‍
If perception is the process of becoming aware through the senses and reality is the state of things as they tangibly exist, the gap between the two raises questions about what we know to be true.
I am particularly interested in this gap and its relationship with technology, media, systems of power, human behavior, and identity. 

I have spent my life between France, South and North America and identify as a trilingual mutt with three national identities. I'm currently based in New York City.
