I am doing it in the most organic way possible. I am a french artist based in Paris but I am also painting for Japan every day and travelling around Japan every year for a month since 2011. I am touched by sense of detail in every thing or gesture. In May 2017, I started a new series, a link between my two worlds named Parigot (people born in Paris) Edokko (people born in Edo, Tokyo). I was searching for something really French instead of kimono. Repetto is one of perfect symbol of France, isn't ? These shoes name is Zizi in memory of the dancer Zizi Jeanmaire. In white is was favorite shoes of Serge Gainsbourg. This drawing is made on japanese papers folded, dyed, glued. On these layers of papers, I draw a shape. Then I fill with watercolour and collage. All small details are made by pencil or felt pen.
