Hello
I am a French designer born in 1977 and living in Laos since 2005. Here on Wikimedia I'm mostly active at FPC.
My photographs have been published in books and in a hundred of websites, including Artforum, The Diplomat, Jumeau Empire, The Daily Californian, Le Monde diplomatique, Metro Weekly, Boulder Weekly The Conversation, Nice-Matin, Le Petit Journal, Khmer Times, The American Scholar, Santa Barbara Independent, Futura, Le Progrès, Medium, Ouest-France, World History Encyclopedia, Reporterre, Sputnik, Greek Reporter, The Tico Times, Rediff.com, Open Magazine...
Apart from photography, I also work on ambigrams, words using symmetrical calligraphy to be read upside down or through a mirror.
My ambigrams have been published in Pressenza, Le Monde Libertaire, Substack, Potential Plus UK, Le Point, Forbes, Medium, Quanta Magazine, Le Matin, and broadcast on a French famous TV show.
