My Interests

One of my text on Laurie Anderson will be published at the end of 2008 (Harmattan)

I play the classical piano since I'm 5 years old. I studied at the Conservatoire until my twenty years old. It was my first language.

I staged a Viktor Pelevine's novel (contemporary russian writer), “the yellow arrow”, in 2003 with 24 actors and two electronical DJs.

In 2005, I played in the "Cabaret Brecht", a musical and theatrical play based on the year 1935, Kurt Weill and Brecht.

Last year I played a prostitute for a documentary-fiction on the Resistance during the second WW (France 2/ France 5), for a TV fiction with J.P. Daroussin (France 2) and I recently played (Mélodie) for a serie, "les invincibles" (Arte)

So, what else ? That's what I like : music, cinema, literature, sculpture, theater... Sometimes drawing, dreaming, making pictures, more than all red wine, writing, sleeping (when my mind permits me such a break), dancing, traveling (when I'll be rich), feeling the madness and burning life as much as I can.

I'd like to meet:
