Born in Paris in 1971, I have attended the ESAT “Ecole supérieure d’art et technique” (scenography, design and Interior architect school). I have participated in numerous scenography projects, both in theatre or cinema. Specialized as “peintre en décor” (decor painter) and graduated in the Guégan Institute, one of the best school for decor techniques in France. For many years, I have been dedicated exclusively to trompe l’oeil for professionals, public places and privates all through France. In 2002, I came to Italy and nowadays I live and work in Turin.
“Any nature form or design created by man can be beautiful, only if it is very essential, for example, the tiny leafs of the grass or even the more sophisticated tropical plants…for Florence Limoges a simple high heel in a woman’s shoe, a big cabbage with a snail, a path with a little kitten walking through, a little red frog laying down on an enormous leaf with a great big golden disk in the back, two little red fish… are mainly what this artist likes to recreate with love. Because it is important to know that, everything that you learn to observe with love can become, for each one of us, a magnificent opportunity of exchange towards our existence. If you are able to be as essential as Florence Limoges, looking at her artwork you can be able to capture her talent and positive art.
