Profile

I grew up among a wide range of pop-culture graphical representations (european “ligne claire”, japanese visual culture, …) and developped a strong interest for this field.

As a columnist, I contributed to several web sites and blogs dedicated to mangas, anime and comics. I took part in the creation of a professional magazine, devoted to manga and anime (Mangajima, six issues published between September 2004 and August 2005).

Since 2006, I put much effort to narrow the gap between the graphical world and the general public. I support several cultural entities (festivals, libraries, cultural centers, cinemas, etc..) in the development of various events around the comics and animation.
