"I am a 32 year old woman, of French nationality, who emigrated to Switzerland at the age of 20, by choice. My daily life revolves around living in a community and the various collective activities that result from it: vegetable garden, meetings, organisation of cultural events, cooking, recycling, workcamps, associative links. A speech therapist by profession, my passion remains psychiatry and, more generally, everything related to madness. Since 2010, I am part of an association and we have a workshop called La Reliure (an old bookbinding factory). In 2014 and 2017, we organised a festival there around art, norms and madness. 
I worked at the Dracar centre in Geneva from November 2015 to February 2019. I was a psychosocial facilitator. During this period I had two children, which changed my life. Art, creation and crafts accompany me in life and in my work at Dracar. It seemed natural to me, afterwards, to turn to the diversion of matter as a means of communication with Christian."
