Credentials

  • Works on commission

My name is Anne and I live in the south of Lyon in Saint Genis Laval.
Recently retired from the national education system, I taught visual arts in middle school after a short career in kindergarten and first grade. My job allowed me to approach young people from all walks of life, to be interested in different cultural and artistic heritages, to question artistic practices and to experiment with them. When I wanted to pass the agrégation in visual arts, the teachers told us: "painting is old-fashioned, you have to make videos!" I focused on installations, sound-visual art. And then in 2014, while cycling along the Viarhona, I discovered the Molly Sabata artist residency and there, surprise! Young painters who earned their living from painting. I did several weekend internships there... Each one more enriching than the last. It was really this experience that re-boosted my energy as a painter.
