Born in 1996, he grew up in the countryside of Saint-Etienne; he now lives and works in Marseille.
His artistic practice mixes poetic writing, performance and video. Through these mediums, he explores and stages his different social and political coordinates as a young gay, an HIV- positive person, an artist and a partygoer passionate about music, dance and clubbing. Affectivity, love and desire play an important role in the narratives he deploys - in his blogging videos as well as in his public performances. Empowerment through collective celebration, connection to others, the power of words, and the possibilities and limits of the body are all subjects that run through the devices, always situated, that he presents to the public. Often collaborative, his projects include close friends, artists, activists, or authors with whom he feels a sense of community. His work treats the body as an archive and an embodied political gesture, on which appear the ebb and flow of history, the stakes of social struggles and the need for emancipation from contemporary normative regimes.
