Biography
After completing a bachelor of photography at the Ecole Cantonale d’Art de Lausanne (Switzerland), I am pursuing my own artistic practice, which focuses on the age-old interspecies relationships of humans to honeybees and honeybees to humans. This research brought me closer to humanity's studies, hence my decision to undertake a master's degree in Visual and Media Anthropology at the Freie Universität in Berlin. For several years, I have continued an open-ended research, navigating on the border between art and anthropology. As a result, multi-faced artworks occur, based on multispecies ethnography and a regular art practice, using media such as videos, writing, sound and photography. These pieces are at the same time autonomous and connected together through this common investigation. Together they create a narrative universe which aims to imagine a common place where species meet and where translation between unalike sensorial worlds become possible. This site is not fixed and moves along contact zones where honeybees and humans meet – a place where ontological choreography happens, where beekeepers, scholars, and honeybees continue this age-old dance and invent new ones in alliance with technology.
