Source text - English Dang – Rachelle Dang creates hand riven environments filled with ceramic objects – in this case
breadfruits - rendered with applied painterly glazes. Transforming and interpreting organic motifs from
the natural world to examine historical and ecological connections between people and places, the artist’s
approach draws from her family’s history in Hawai`i, to create works that span cross-cultural,
transoceanic histories.http://www.rachelledang.com/statement
Enokura – A founding member of the Japanese avant-garde movement Mono-ha, Koji Enokura was driven
by tangible responses and interventions that occur when the human body - often his own – confronts
natural elements, unscripted situations and found materials in the world. The artist’s unique
photographs illustrate poignantly Enokura’s passionate search for unconventional beauty in the mundane,
the accidental and the overlooked.
Fletcher – “Long flights, sun baked, secret breaks, camera rolling, film burning, insane sequence after
insane sequence. Color, black/white stills all tell the story.” http://www.herbiefletcher.com/stained-
photos-1 As a legendary surfer and multi-media artist, Fletcher has used photography for over 50 years
to capture friends and family in ocean driven sequences where life is lived as unpredictably as waves are
made ad unmade. This selection of action images are rendered with a painterly varnish of pored and
brushed ink and resin, making each a singular and unique object.
Translation - French Dang – Rachelle Dang compose à la main des environnements fragmentés remplis de céramiques. Dans ce cas, des fruits à pain traités en appliquant des glaçages picturaux. En transformant et en interprétant les motifs organiques du milieu naturel afin d’examiner les liens historiques et écologiques entre les peuples et les lieux, la démarche de l’artiste s’inspire de l’histoire de sa famille à Hawaii pour créer des œuvres multiculturelles sur fond d’histoires transocéaniques. http://www.rachelledang.com/statement
Enokura – Membre fondateur du mouvement d’avant-garde Japonais Mono-ha, Koji Enokura était porté par de tangibles messages et interventions qui se produisent quand le corps humain, souvent le sien, confronte les éléments naturels, les situations non-prévue et trouve de la matière dans ce monde. Les photographies uniques de l’artiste illustrent d’une manière poignante sa recherche passionnée pour la beauté non conventionnelle qui réside au sein du banal, de l’accidentel et du négligé.
Fletcher – « Des longs vols, cramés par le soleil, des spots cachés, la caméra qui tourne, le film qui brule, séquence de folie après séquence de folie. Les images couleurs et noir&blanc racontent l’histoire. » https://www.herbiefletcher.com/stained-photos-1 En tant que surfeur légendaire et artiste multimédia, Fletcher a utilisé la photographie pendant plus de 50 ans pour capturer ses amis et sa famille dans des séquences menées par l’océan où la vie est vécue aussi imprévisiblement que l’est la formation et la déformation des vagues. Cette sélection d’images d’action est traitée avec un vernis pictural fait d’encre et de résine poreuse et brossée, faisant de chaque objet une œuvre unique et singulière.

I am American, but grew up in France and was educated in both French and English until the age of 18. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in the United States where I studied Environmental Science and Anthropology with a minor in Latin American and Caribbean Studies.
I have translated book chapters, essays, short films, advertisements, emails, websites, subtitles, and biographies from French to English. I have also translated texts, subtitltes and book chapters from English to French. My writing skills are extremely strong, and I work fluidly in both French and English. However, my technical writing skills are strongest when translating from French to English. I can also translate texts from Spanish to English.
I worked in the Peruvian Amazon for 2 years for an NGO, where I became conversationally fluent in Spanish which I had learned growing up from traveling and Spanish classes.
I am currently completing my master’s degree from Vermont Law & Graduate School with a specialization in food and agriculture law and policy.
I now live part time between Paris, France and Vermont, USA.
