About Me
I imagine dreamlike landscapes that metamorphose and expand
Attentive to the organic universe that surrounds me, I love to wander in the wilderness and soak up the life that breathes there. Nature is for me an incredible source of inspiration, an infinite panel of forms, colours and materials. I like to collect, draw, weave, dye and transform these universes in order to form real anthologies of sensibility.
Passionate about precious textile know-how, I obtained two diplomas in arts and crafts, in upholstery and weaving, then a Bachelor's degree in fashion design specializing in textile design. Thanks to these courses, I was able to learn many ancestral textile techniques such as Ikat, printing on warp before weaving or Sakiori, which I now revisit in a contemporary way with sensibility and delicacy. I like to work around a respectful creation process where the know-how has its place and the time to make is appreciated and reflected.
INSPIRATION
A symbolic and committed collection that invites the spirits of the Kamis to awaken
Passionate about Japanese ideology and aesthetics, I draw my inspiration from Hayao Miyazaki's anime and living treasures like Fukumi Shimura. Dear Izanami, is an open letter to the Kamis, the spirits of nature in Japanese Shintoism. Through a textile and fashion collection rich in know-how, I invite the Kamis to awaken. I imagine their appearance, their character traits and their environments and materialize them in volumes, colours and patterns.
For this collection, I worked on extended silhouettes, in the form of collages, imagining the garment flat, as I imagine a textile. I created contemplative pieces mixing traditional know-how and noble materials with contemporary productions and technical materials. I have imagined a singular collection, both worn and suspended. Through a textile work in volume and patterns, I imagined the awakening of the Kamis spirits and the birth of new organic worlds that develop and metamorphose.

DETAIL
I revisit and reinterpret traditional and ancestral know-how to animate my textile surfaces
The Chère Izanami textile collection is inspired by nature to give life to precious textiles, rich in meaning and know-how. Through weaving, dyeing, binding and silk-screening, surfaces blossom, come alive and metamorphose to take over the garment. To create this collection, I approached the textile in two ways. Ephemeral Nature draws a flowering of transitory volumes with lightness and sensitivity. These volumes are created using techniques such as warp ikat, shibori and Sakiori weaving. Organic Chaos reveals a blossoming of dreamlike and swarming volumes thanks to techniques such as silk-screening and warp printing.
