"Bénédicte lives in Lyon, but she comes from the Jura, and she has always had a taste for work well done, deep work that requires time, tenacity and serenity." She is a graduate of the Fine Arts of St Etienne and she attended courses in Versailles, Bourges and England, she exposes her work of "photographer" in the region for ten years. In particular, the first part of his work on the Bugey Centrale was presented at the Galerie Vrais Rêves last June.

Bénédicte likes to explore, to seek, to make discoveries. His early works explored banal, everyday landscapes, carrying however minute traces, slow changes, that only the acuity of the photographer's gaze could grasp. But his work is not limited to taking snapshots; she also works with the photographic material "peeling the image" to get to the essential or using diazo layers that are slowly, over the days, impressed by the presence of the spectators and reveal, once developed the trace of their passage .
