“Passionate about gardening, I one day started taking
pictures of private gardens to capture all the details and
moments of wonder I feel in front of these pieces, when
the symbiosis of the man-made touches and the beauty
of nature create magic.
The series “Aimée à mort” brings together photographs
and embroideries. Each stitch tells its story. Each time I
pierce the paper to create these delicate embroidered
knots of colour, I make a wish. I intentionally removed the
colours of the original photographs to plunge into eternity
and let the flowers die metaphorically. Then I offer them a
new life, ethereal, resuscitating them by colouring in parts
of the photographs with pastels and ink. Each image
is unique and charged with secrets and emotions. One
after the other, they form a thread of life, of emotions and
memories.”
