Born in Paris in 1972, Laure Gervais is influenced by her Italian-French roots, Arts and Sciences. Therefore, she naturally studied Human Sciences alongside a multidisciplinary artistic career. Her artistic quest is animated by experiments, developed through various techniques that she does not hesitate to mix : screen printing, painting, collage, photography, video. Theater & performances are created and produced within the framework of the non-profit organisation SisterArt she co-founded.
