Visual artist
My artistic interests are closely linked to my philosophical research. I take up the question of matter, time and processuality, I'm interested in the problem of passage and becoming - and it's from this perspective that I see the identity of man. In my artistic work (and also in my philosophical research) I involve reflection on the corporeality or materiality of the world - something that has been rejected and devalued for centuries in philosophical thought. I present corporeality and materiality as elements as essential as the esprit, and therefore as important components of our experience (I refer to French phenomenological thought). In fact, in my work I combine elements that only appear to be opposites and, as a result, whose boundaries cannot be clearly defined .
Thus my interest also in the difference itself, the border, and the gap, the fissure.
Project
Human - Non-human
The Human–Non-Human project is my lifelong artistic endeavor, which has gradually taken theoretical shape alongside the development of my philosophical journey. It consists of multiple series, including Plant’s Body, Trees, and Objets Non-Précieux, and is realized through a variety of techniques: oil on canvas, watercolor combined with drawing and my own methods, video, as well as works incorporating hair, leaven, and resin.
The project explores corporeality, dualisms, and the agency of non-human entities, approaching identity as fluid, relational, and continuously shaped through interactions between human and non-human forms. Inspired by plants and trees whose forms echo the human body, the works highlight the entanglement of human and non-human life, questioning boundaries and emphasizing hybridity. Drawing on contemporary philosophical thought — including Latour’s Actor-Network Theory, Deleuze and Guattari’s assemblage, and new materialism — the series situates art within a phenomenological reflection on the world, revealing the interconnectedness of bodies, matter, and environment.
Plant's body
Plants’ Body is a series rooted in my long-standing interest in the body and organic matter, as well as in the notion of the border—understood as a space of transition, the “in-between.” The works question the possibility of defining a fixed boundary between the human and the non-human, seeking these relationships within nature.

Plants play a central role in the series Plants’ Body. Their spirals, veins, folds, and growth patterns evoke processes of embodiment, development, and transformation, while revealing an inherent ambiguity. The series examines these forms closely, highlighting the interplay between human and plant structures and the blurring of boundaries between them.

"Objets non-précieux"
2024
- series of works on canvas made using own techniques (bread leaven, hair, resin, watercolours).
In this series of non-precious objetcs I use living bacteria - I work with leaven, but also I continue my work with hair.
The series “Non-Precious Objects” explores organic materiality and natural processes by combining living sourdough and human hair. Each work emerges through the interaction between the artist and bacteria: after applying the sourdough, I let the material act on its own, then intervene to highlight organic forms with watercolor and hair. The series questions the boundaries between human and non-human, the co-existence of entities, and the constantly evolving nature of identity, while emphasizing hybridity, corporeality, and the intimate relationship between human creation and the autonomous processes of matter.

Stonebody
This interdisciplinary project explores the blurred boundaries between human corporeality and geological matter. Stones collected from my local surroundings in the Pyrenees (France and Spain) are photographed in high-resolution microscopy, revealing structural details that inspire large-scale mixed-media paintings.
Stonebody I is the first work in this series, based on a laboratory photograph depicting a grain of sand and a human vaginal epithelial cell with a visible nucleus. The painting merges human and non-human forms, highlighting unexpected visual and structural similarities. Abstract textures of stone intertwine with anatomical imagery — vascular systems, skin cells, tissue networks — uncovering human presence within geological matter, expressing memory, fragility, and time-embedded intimacy.
The project is ongoing and will continue to expand, exploring new materials and further intersections between human and geological forms.

Ephemeral Body - series of photographs
Chair de Neurones
2023 - 2024
A series of photographs made in biological laboratory (mixed with graphic techniques)
This series of photographs is created from images captured under a microscope in a biology laboratory. The neurons from the sample were overlaid onto human skin and reworked by the artist, creating a dialogue between microscopic structure and human materiality.
The image explores corporeality and the porous boundary between the invisibility of the mind and the physical body, confronting living microscopic matter with bodily texture. Through this hybridization, the work reveals forms and volumes that evoke both the human body and the neuronal system, questioning our perception of living matter and the intimate relationship between biology and corporeal presence.

Whispering Roots
2013
video, 01:53 min
This video explores the intimate connection between the human body and nature. The torso of a woman is interwoven with a tree, her breath animating the branches, while veins in her body echo the movement of the tree’s limbs. The work reflects on the rhythm of life, the porous boundary between human and non-human, and the shared vitality of all living matter.
Threads of Being
2013
video, loop
This video explores the intertwining of human lives and identities, visualized through the interaction of hair strands and droplets. The strands and drops merge, cross, and separate, forming a dynamic network that reflects our relational, assemblage-like existence. The work highlights how identity is not fixed, but continuously shaped in connection with others, where individual paths overlap, diverge, and momentarily unite.
Traces of Presence ( I )
2012
video, 01:52 min
This video presents a close-up of a person’s hair — the body itself is absent, and only the hair is visible. The strands lie on the earth and in a stream, while the background shifts subtly around them.
The hair acts as a trace of presence, a material memory that persists even as the surrounding environment changes. It becomes a site where human and non-human, stillness and movement, past and present intersect.
By focusing on this fragment of the body, the work reflects on continuity, relationality, and the ways in which life leaves its mark on matter. It emphasizes the resilience of corporeal traces within constantly shifting natural contexts.
Hairline
2011
video, loop
This video shows a close-up of hair moving in the wind, emerging from a fissure in dried earth. A fragment of the human body appears as if it were growing from the soil, blurring the boundary between body and landscape.
The crack becomes a space of transition — between inside and outside, human and non-human. The earth is not a passive surface but a living participant in a shared process of becoming.
The work reflects on memory as something embedded in matter and on identity as relational, unstable, and constantly in transformation.
