Founder and director of Bloom and Boom
an activist and feminist association - Geneva (Switzerland).
I grew up at the foot of the Swiss Jura, surrounded by a captivating enchanting nature. This childhood, occasionally solitary, led me to perceive the forest as an extension of my family, and the diverse forms of life as roommates. This universe, populated by countless details, mostly invisible to others, molded my imagination, shaping my understanding of life, and continues to deeply influence my work today.
After a somewhat tumultuous educational journey, I explored the professional world, from publishing to film festivals, from human resources to professional integration or education, looking for something more, something that would truly make sense. In 2012, I founded a feminist association that shaped a part of who I am as an artist. Since then, I have remained dedicated to issues related to gender and certain oppressive social norms perpetuated by our society.
Today, my life is a constellation of various projects, particularly artistic ones, which share the common goal of offering alternative ways to experience and collaborate within the same territory. This is my understanding of Social practice.
