About

I am a photographer and visual artist based in Geneva. My practice explores how images construct narratives and shape our perception of reality. Often sparked by a news item, an anecdote, or a fragment of history, my projects unfold as visual constructions in which the boundary between documentation and fiction deliberately remains unstable.

With a strong cinematic sensibility, I pay particular attention to framing, rhythm, and narrative tension. Landscapes, architecture, and human figures become elements of a subtle dramaturgy, leaving space for viewers to question and interpret what they see.
