Statement :

From her journey in women's fashion, Léa keeps her sensitivity to women and the desire to represent them. They are her main theme, with hands and gestures. We recognize her works to her thin lines and refine style. She draw with ink on paper and use golden leafs as touches in her illustrations Her work is a light universe that symbolically brings attention to the magic details surrounding us, the one that exist within us, too. Her inspiration come mainly through musics and the sensitivity she has for her visual environment.

«The world is full of magical things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper »
