As a kid, I attended the Kodály Zoltán School in Budapest and studied music for many years. I got into the Budapest Film Academy at the age of seventeen before studying dramatic art at the Conservatory of Strasbourg. I worked as an actor, producer and videographer in France, Mali, and Hungary.
Masks
This project is truly mine, and truly unfinished. It is an exploration of what acting is, the power and will of becoming someone else. In that context, I had the chance to meet Master Hamid from mask-making shop Ca' del Sol in Venice.

I landed in Bamako for the first time in October 2020. I had the chance, during the seven months of my stay, to work with various Malian artists, students and children. I especially thank Lassina Koné from the Don Sen Fɔlɔ Lab and Modibo Konaté for their warm welcome. The few remaining pictures of my past projects are to be found below. I now work with Tiemoko Niambele and Moussa Ballo as the Sekonidɔnko Jɛkulu Yɛlɛma.
