I grew up in Azrou, Grenoble and the San Francisco Bay Area, where I have lived for the past 32 years. In July of 2020, I moved to Hunterdon County, New Jersey. Each of these places and cultures has had a unique influence on my life and art. My mother was a dressmaker. Her amazing creations were my childhood window to colors, design and texture. My father was a watchmaker - an expert in fixing traditional clocks and watches. In our house, the nicely placed authentic clocks were set to orchestral precision and were not to be touched.
For more than two decades, I have worked on color distribution in the visualization of observable natural facts, drawing from the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, geology, environmental science and music-color connections. Isolation helps me keep the flow of dialogue between the art and myself uninterrupted. For years, I even avoided influences from various art movements, out of the conviction that I had to walk this path alone.
