Iconography

After a professional training in classical ballet, and studies in visual arts, I completed a master thesis and doctorate studies (Ph.D.) in anthropology with a specialization in archaeology and iconography of ancient Egypt artwork.

The study of the symbolism of representation (iconography) has always fascinated me and is also playing a large part in my current intuitive and creative practices, which include dance, digital photography, poetic prose writing and Japanese paper collages.
