“I used my time at La Moissie as an immersive period to focus on my first novel, inspired by the life of a family relative, Simon Marcovici Cleja. I dedicated time to writing and research, while exploring how my experience across film, theatre and documentary could inform a more intimate literary form. I particularly appreciated the opportunity to work alongside other artists, share ideas and be part of a creative community, while having the quiet and space I needed to write.”
