About Me

I'm a french artist living in Lyon and i'm invested in underground culture. I was born in Aix-en-provence and try to keep my south-east accent even if everybody laugh at it in Lyon, putaing'.
I make drawings for album covers and gig posters, i publish fanzines, I book alternative music gigs, I love practicing meditation, congolese ritual dance and chaos magic.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people, discover other cultures and ways of life, welcome people to sleep in Lyon, and i want to avoid asseptised and unpersonal room rental.

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste in music is very ecclectic : from traditional sitar music ... to metal. I love underground music scene (crust punk, doom, grind, noise, alt folk, black metal ...)
I read dystopian SciFi / Philosophy and ecofeminism essays / graphic novels . My last powerful reading : the essay "Caliban and the witch" written by Silvia Federici.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I made a bicycle roadtrip with my boyfriend from Amsterdam to Brussels, sleeping in tent in the wet nature and riding a very old, rusted, cheap, heavy, brakeless and unequiped dutch bike. Luckily this rolling thrash held on until the end of the trip... but my bottom remember it :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make art workshops or teach you some techniques : drawing, sculpture, engraving, micro-edition, book binding, watercolor, embroidery, anatomical and occult iconography, magic sigils, sewing machine, programs like photoshop, indesign, illustrator ...
