04bis. Drôle de fantascope

“I grew up in Brittany, between pink granite coasts and farmlands. I always liked looking at the surrounding landscape and drawing the micro-vegetation bordering the paths. After graduating in applied arts, I wanted to work in a field that enabled me to express my creativity. My love of space design and plant life led me to prepare for an Advanced Technician Certificate (BTS) in landscape design, followed by a degree in urban planning. I went on to take part in various schoolyard redevelopment and urban landscaping projects, working in teams with architects and environmental professionals. Very enriching experiences, on a human and professional level alike. It also made me question our approach to the environment and the challenges it presents. These days, I work mainly for private individuals. My aim is to help them reappropriate their gardens while trying to pass on my love of plant life to them. Ever since I was a little girl, I've also expressed myself through dance. As a student at a conservatory, creating choreographies, sometimes accompanied by musicians, is a way of escaping. It's real scenographic work, during which we try to transcribe a world, a rhythm, and capture the audience's emotions. Taking part in the Chaumont-sur-Loire International Garden Festival is a great challenge for me, as it enables me to reconcile the world of choreography with the world of plant life, both of which are in constant motion.”
