Archive Vivante — a “living archive” — is where memory, beauty, and practice come together. It is not a fixed collection, but a breathing space where gestures, stories, and images continue to resonate.


Here, I gather what sustains my work: deep anecdotes rooted in my genealogical tree, fragments of lived tradition, impressions from travels, and visual traces that move me — the curve of an ornament, the rhythm of a pattern, the quiet harmony of geometry. Alongside these sit unfulfilled inquiries, tenderness, nostalgia, and yearning — emotions that shape how I return to memory and sublimize them into form.


This archive is at once personal and shared. Some entries take the form of photographs or travel notes, others as reflections, research fragments, or memories held in care. Together, they form a constellation of inheritances, wanderings, and visual sparks that feed into my art.

Archive Vivante is an invitation: to step into these crossings of story, ornament, and movement — and to see how art grows from the interweaving of memory, longing, and beauty.
