My paintings are nourished by my experiences in sacred forests and their communities

I am particularly interested in those groups and communities that are not always 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 sacred forests. Partly thanks to the project, spiritual forests in the Boé have since 2021 a protected status.
Through paint on canvas, I translate my experiences and give voice to the unheard stories and perspectives from the Boé.
