Translate magic into matter.
Throughout the ages, Nature has often been a place of strange phenomena. In every ancient or more contemporary folklore, a part of mythology evolves within this natural environment. Filled with magic, mystery and bewilderment, it became a theater for the wildest legends.
Based on this mysticism, I realised a series of photographs which transcribe mysterious universes. From this natural phenomena, I developed a range of textiles playing on different textures and patterns. By using a visual and textural link between textiles and landscapes, the fabric sometimes become watery, misty, snowy or magical.
