Failing to have found Homer, I met Sisyphus It is the search for something that does not exist or no longer exists. It’s a movement that brings you alive. It is the encounter with absurd and ephemeral repetition. This is a look at the ongoing construction sites on the island of Ios. It is an echo of Greek mythology, Homer and storytelling in the broad sense.
When I was little, I made films with playmobiles and plastic Indians. Today, I am at the Beaux-Arts de Bordeaux, in my second year and I specialize in video and writing. I also work with various materials including sculpture, ceramics and drawing. After my baccalaureate in Theater specialty, I did a year of hypokhâgne in Paris, then an artistic preparation, before moving for the first time, to Bordeaux. I've been making films for some time now, and I know that it's really in this area that I can express myself best. Show, make people travel, make people feel emotions. Choosing the aesthetic, the words of my actors, the framing of the shots, the editing of the rushes. All the stages give me a satisfaction and pleasure that I rarely find otherwise.
