This is the story of an encounter.
Lanassa
The Intercessor
The Priestess
The One who can see
The Goddess
Lanassa is the genius of Claire Parizel.
Intellectual, haemophiliac painter, engineer, preceptress, actress, performer, historian, singer, writer, witch, thinker, dreamer, creator, visionary...
Claire is interested in all kind of truths, and tends to share them in order to gather. Practicing maieutics, she does not strive so much to reveal the truth as to unveil the subjective, situated ones.
Therefore she is keen on being an intermadiary between subjects and objects, to be known and beheld. Hence, she comes closer to the others and brings them closer, makes a group, an ensemble.

Laure Saffroy-Lepesqueur
Juste like Claire, Laure has chosen to live with intensity, and without waiting.
Besides her studies in history of art, her multiple professional and voluntary involvments, her passion for art and life, Laure paints, plays, sings, takes pictures. Today, she introduces herself as an illustrator.
She portrays the creatures who inhabit her mind and haunt her face. Her icons are meaningful and full of gold : the women whom she depicts are plural and strong, inspiring.
But Lanassa shall tell you better than I do.
