My paintings are based on my experiences in sacred forests

I am particularly interested in groups of people and elements in nature that are not always seen or heard. For example, in my last project, Sacred Forests, I lived and worked in 2017 with local communities in the Boé region in Guinea-Bissau (West Africa) to preserve their spiritual forests. Partly thanks to the project, sacred forests in the Boé have since 2021 a protected status.
Through paint on canvas, I translate my experiences and give a stage to the unheard voices of the Boé.
