I am a French visual artist based in Amsterdam. My work bridges the worlds of art, illustration, and storytelling. My practice is defined by lace-like illustrations cut from single sheets of paper, paired with vibrant graphic drawing to bring a distinctive aesthetic to any interior or project.
Cutting through large sheets of paper, I create playful and delicate universes, drawing inspiration from the places I have lived and visited. Cities and nature are my main sources of inspiration, and my work is a continuous exploration of shapes, patterns, and colours, expressed through paper cuttings, drawings, and paintings.
For 18 years, I channeled my creativity into my brand, Famille Summerbelle. Following the closure of the shop in early 2026, I am now focusing my practice on unique artworks and bespoke commissions under my own name. My portfolio ranges from one-of-a-kind pieces to large-scale installations and commercial collaborations. I work closely with architects, art consultants, and international brands, always guided by my attention to detail, love of colour, and commitment to craftsmanship.
My work has been exhibited in Paris, London, and Tokyo, and I have had the privilege of collaborating with clients such as Issey Miyake, the V&A Museum, WeWork, Panasonic Home, and The Londoner Hotel Macao.
My signature cut-out maps and illustrations have been featured in design literature, including A Map of the World (Gestalten) and Island (Thames and Hudson), All About Maps (Sandu), Panorama of Illustrative Maps (Art Quarter Taiwan) as well as international publications like Vogue Australia, Marie Claire Maison France, Elle Deco UK, Spur Japan, Milk France and Japan.
My approach is rooted in a formal education in spatial and theatrical design. I hold a degree in Visual Art specialising in Architectural Environments from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Appliqués Olivier de Serres in Paris, and a First-Class BA in Set and Costume Design from Central Saint Martins in London.
