Bio     |     Contact






I’m a photographer and multimedia artist based in Montreal, Quebec. I studied advertising at Université de Montréal and completed my bachelor degree in Fine Arts at Concordia University. My work has been exhibited in Montreal in shows held at Eastern Bloc, Mainline Gallery and Art Gang Gallery, as well as through online activities for Les Journées de la Culture.

I am also involved in the art world and community as a technician for the artist run centre TOPO and am always willing to help set up installations.

(This is actually a statement)


I juggle between traditional film-based techniques and modern digital processes as a way to explore photography - collage, virtual reality, light-based installations, data alterations, video. With this kaleidoscopic approach, I mainly investigate the accumulation, construction and failure of memories, the inevitable technological shift, its impact on the human psyche and the everflowing migration of the real to the virtual. More precisely, my work delve into the human condition in an increasingly symbiotic technocracy and challenges the truthfulness and validity of our experiences.

I’m inspired with recurrent themes such as dreams, illusions and the virtual - as opposed to the tangible - since it supports the idea that the constant fluctuation of truths within loose structures of information is actually an appealing way of reshaping the world; the fragile foundations of reality, the conventions, are constantly challenged within the boundaries of our imagination.
