Presented as part of my final year diploma, the film Michèle et Hélène recounts the childhood of my grandmother and her sister. Based on their memories, I imagine their lives in Landivisiau from the 1930s to the beginning of the war. Using traditional frame-by-frame animation, I bring old photographs of my family back to life. The archive images were filmed by my great-grandfather and found at the Cinémathèque de Bretagne.

A graduate of the Haute École des Arts du Rhin, I live and work in Paris. Through drawing, animation and graphics, I tell stories with a touch of poetry and humour. Using line and colour, I explore familiar and imaginary landscapes.
