Independent artistic director – between emotions, aesthetics, and brand consistency
I design visual and sound experiences that leave a lasting impression.
With over 20 years of experience in events, hospitality, and immersive content creation, I support brands, venues, and projects with a strong sensory dimension in defining and implementing their overall artistic identity.
What sets me apart:
🔸 A narrative and sensitive vision for each project
🔸 A cross-disciplinary approach (scenography, music curation, photo/video, storytelling)
🔸 Meticulous execution and fluid direction of the creative talents involved
⸻
I enjoy working on:
• venues with soul (rooftops, hotels, restaurants, events)
• projects that aim to create a real atmosphere, not just an image
• assignments where I am entrusted with artistic direction from A to Z (identity, ambiance, content, team)
⸻
My goals:
To create lasting collaborations with venues or brands that want to stand out differently – through meaning, elegance, and emotion.
And to continue telling stories through image, sound, and space.
