Portrait

In spring 2013 I found by a lucky coincidence a studio very close to my home.

This creative retreat has become my oasis. Here I enjoy every moment while creating, gluing, etc.

In my collages I give space and expression to my moods, thoughts or inspiring sentences that I pick up. I come in contact with a deeper level within me, which is reflected in my artistic work.

I was born in 1964, and grew up in French-speaking part of Switzerland, I am married and mother of two now grown-up children. I live with my family near Biel/Bienne.

Artistic career

  • As a child I attended ceramic/modeling courses.
  • Later I created a balance to my professional life with drawing and pottery courses.
  • In 1995 I discovered the expression painting in the studio of Gina B. in Nidau. Gina introduced me to the art of intuitive painting. I remained faithful to her studio for several years.
  • From 2011 to 2015 I concentrated on modeling ceramic angels.
  • Since May 2013 I have my own studio. I organize regular meetings with like-minded artists and enjoy working together and exchanging experiences.
  • In 2014 my enthusiasm for the art of collages was awakened at an introductory course with Regula Stucki in Bern.
  • 2015 I broadened my collage knowledge with a one-week course with Susann Baur, Bern.
  • 2017-2019 I attended a collage course at the Schule für Gestaltung in Bern under the guidance of Silvia Summer.
  • In 2019 I experimented in printing with the Gelli-Print plate (Zentrum Paul Klee with Verena Wyss) and deepened my knowledge in color theory (SMS Malschule with Andrian Weber).
