About

Born in Abidjan, I grew up in Côte d’Ivoire and France. Now based in Paris, I work across movement direction, choreography, and visual storytelling, with projects spanning live performance, music videos, commercials, and film.

My approach is rooted in firsthand experience on stage and in front of the camera. As a performer, my work includes fashion collaborations with Dior, Nike, Rabanne, and Vogue, as well as work on stage or in studios with artists including Rihanna, Travis Scott, Aya Nakamura, and Bad Bunny.

Building on that foundation, I develop concepts, direct movement, and shape performances, from working closely with independent artists to leading stage direction for Gazo’s sold-out arena tour and directing my own award-winning dance films.

My focus extends beyond movement to the overall creative vision, connecting the performance to the world around it. This portfolio brings together a selection of my work, project and ideas.

À propos

Né à Abidjan et aujourd’hui basé à Paris, je mêle direction du mouvement, chorégraphie, direction créative et création visuelle, aussi bien sur scène que dans les clips, la publicité et le cinéma.

Mon approche s’est construite au contact de la scène et devant la caméra. En tant que performer, j’ai collaboré avec Dior, Nike, Rabanne et Vogue dans l’univers de la mode, et travaillé sur scène ou en studio aux côtés d’artistes comme Rihanna, Travis Scott, Aya Nakamura, et Bad Bunny.

Aujourd’hui, je m’appuie sur cette expérience pour imaginer des concepts, diriger le mouvement et donner forme aux performances. J’accompagne des artistes indépendants, assure la direction scénique de projets d’envergure comme la tournée à guichets fermés de Gazo dont sa date à la Défense Arena, et réalise mes propres films de danse, récompensés en festival.

Ce qui m’intéresse, c’est autant le mouvement que l’univers que l'on construit autour. Ce portfolio rassemble une sélection de mon travail, des mes projets et de mes idées.
