When did you first get inquisitive about artwork and the way did it lead you into the enterprise of being an “artwork present curator”?

My ardour for artwork began at an early age. After finding out at Ecole Boulle, the school of fantastic arts in Paris, I start my profession as a scenographer in Paris working with architects on the renovation of the Egyptian Antiquities in Le Louvre. Most of my expertise in Visible arts, design and scenography is coming from collaborating with worldwide magnificence manufacturers in Asia equivalent to Giorgio Armani, Shu Uemura, Helena Rubinstein, Elizabeth Arden.

The world of magnificence introduced me to Asia 20 years in the past as a global architect. Making a pause with the beauty trade in 2020, gave me the chance to develop the artwork marketing consultant exercise in Asia. I at all times wished to suggest cross-cultural experiences associated to artwork and heritage in Asia.

My expertise of creative collaborations and inventive platforms begins with Guerlain LVMH and the launch of historic pop-up shops in China.  I’ve discovered via these varied experiences the significance to adapt the idea and palettes to the viewers in Asia.
