Each days are so different.

The Milkshake Agency is her studio in Geneva since fifteen years, sharing with other artists. In this space, they present also exhibitions in the shop window (an artist is invited in the « carte blanche » principle) and many events (performances, open studio, residency, dinners, lectures...)

She is interesting in the process of showing art in the public space, or in the border of it. Graduate from the Ecav (Sierre. Switzerland. Wallis) MAPS (master of public space) Where I met Sara and Pat. My work is also about landscape, mountains essentially. About the representation and about the process of global warming changes in the Alps.

At the opening of the actual Venise biennal, she had the chance to participate for the second time at a Hamish Fulton walk performance... It could be a track, an inspiration for the Practicas de la Periferia... how to leave collectively outside, in the landscape and moving in.
