/ Featured Projects
A selection of professional projects, finished works, and personal explorations.
In progress
Ce qui reste des jours
A documentary about Danièle, an elderly woman who lives alone in the countryside and is gradually losing her sight due to an irreversible eye disease. As blindness approaches, her relationship to the world begins to shift: memories resurface, fears of dependency grow, and everyday gestures, plants, light, and seasons take on a new intensity.
Prière exaucée
In the bustle at the end of mass, Elena joins her younger brother Antoine in the church where he serves as a priest. Abandoned as children by their father, Elena tells her brother that they finally have the opportunity to meet him. This choice divides the two young adults, caught between their personal hopes and their family wounds.
Rob d'Ac
Robert Menot, known as Rob d’Ac, was a French illustrator and advertising artist born in 1891 in Acy-en-Multien. Trained as an engineer, he never abandoned his passion for drawing. After the First World War, he settled in Grenoble, where he became an essential local figure, creating posters, advertisements, illustrations, and children’s books. Inventive and demanding, he explored the art of signs, colors, and forms, blending poetry and graphic design in works such as his “zoomorphs” and “animots.” He died in 1963, leaving behind a rich and vibrant body of work, now preserved by his descendants.
Finished projects
