    Description

    I am an artist and I lead painting and creative workshops in a former convent in Provence, where I live. This place is part of my family history. It holds the memory of my parents' artistic work, and today I seek to bring it to life in a new way, through creation, sharing, and transformation. I live here surrounded by animals (a dog, cats, chickens, and an emu), in a peaceful setting close to nature. I value simple, respectful relationships and people who can adapt to a living, evolving space.

    This is a private home, not an accommodation business. I host people in the context of a personal artistic and cultural project.

    Je suis artiste et j’anime des ateliers de peinture et de création dans un ancien couvent en Provence, où je vis.

    Ce lieu fait partie de mon histoire familiale. Il porte la mémoire du travail artistique de mes parents, et je cherche aujourd’hui à le faire vivre autrement, entre création, transmission et transformation.

    J’y vis entourée d’animaux (chien, chats, poules, et un émeu), dans un cadre calme et proche de la nature.

    Je privilégie les relations simples, respectueuses, et les personnes capables de s’adapter à un lieu vivant, encore en construction.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The surrounding countryside is beautiful, with numerous opportunities for walks and exploring nature. I also offer painting and drawing workshops for those who are interested. I'm connected with a variety of people (artists, friends, visitors), which allows for diverse, simple, and enriching exchanges. Beyond the assistance provided, it's also about participating in a human and creative adventure. The space is evolving into a living house project, connected to the memory and work of the painter Théo Gerber. It's a space in transformation, a blend of creation, transmission, and daily life.

    La campagne environnante est très belle, avec de nombreuses possibilités de balades et de découverte de la nature.

    Je propose également la possibilité de participer à mes ateliers de peinture et de dessin, pour celles et ceux qui le souhaitent.

    Je suis en lien avec différentes personnes (artistes, amis, visiteurs), ce qui permet des échanges variés, simples et enrichissants.

    👉 Au-delà de l’aide apportée, il s’agit aussi de participer à une aventure humaine et créative.

    Le lieu est en train d’évoluer vers un projet de maison vivante, en lien avec la mémoire et l’œuvre du peintre Théo Gerber.

    C’est un espace en transformation, entre création, transmission et vie quotidienne.
