Born in 1987, in Brittany, in the land of fairies and korrigans, Amandine Jung lets herself be captivated by tales and legends, wacky nursery rhymes, cartoons of all kinds.

In his imagination, the sun can disappear to make way for the moon, Snow White can bite into a pearl apple, and a little shrew flies curiously in the sky. Going from a simple image in your head and succeeding in giving it shape is a difficult creative process. Amandine plays with paint, lines and her ideas. It feeds on the slightest word, on a tiny musical note, on a sweet spicy smell, on the sound of the rain falling on the ground, on the autumn leaves singing in the Breton forests, on the moon which makes her dream, of the simplest image and her overflowing imagination does the rest.
