A gaze born from water and life
Trained as a photographer and marine biologist, I have developed a unique visual language over the years, nurtured by observation, fieldwork, and a deep fascination with water and coral. These are the two main threads running through my work. They inspire my art, exhibitions, lectures, and visual experiences that connect beauty to knowledge, emotion to sharing, and humanity to a more sensitive way of inhabiting the world.
From the field to the image
I initially approached the living world through science and action. In 2012, I founded the NGO Coral Guardian to contribute concretely to the preservation of coral reefs alongside local communities. This field experience profoundly shaped my perspective.
Gradually, photography established itself as another way of acting. A way to communicate differently, to make visible what transcends us, and to try to leave a lasting impression in people's eyes.
Today, I develop projects at the crossroads of art, science and visual storytelling: photographic works, exhibitions, conferences, workshops for institutions and companies, as well as signature projects like We are corals or Madame Water.

Work driven by field experience and recognized in diverse contexts
Over the years, my work has taken shape through collaborations with museums, NGOs, institutions, businesses, media outlets, cultural venues, and international events. This diversity fosters an approach that is both demanding and accessible.
A dual legitimacy
My work is born from the encounter between marine biology and artistic photography.
A sensitive approach
I seek to convey with depth, restraint and evocative power.
Custom-made projects
Each collaboration is designed according to the location, the audience, the intended use, and the story to be told.
Origins
Born on the Mediterranean coast, my fascination with aquatic worlds naturally led me to study marine biology, aquaculture, and then the ecology of tropical reefs.
My career began in Indonesia, where I initially worked in the trade of live marine animals for aquariums. This experience confronted me with the reality of overexploitation and prompted me to act differently.
Following this experience, I founded Coral Guardian , an NGO dedicated to the protection of coral reefs in close collaboration with local communities.
