About the Artist


Born in 1958 in France, Pascal spent his childhood traveling and living across Europe and West Africa. His father was a professor and had terms in Madagascar and Turkey. This adventurous upbringing instilled an interest in nature and the environment.

Pascal studied graphic design at the St. Martin School of Arts in London. In 1982 he moved to New York where he pursued a career in photography. Throughout his career he travelled extensively which brought him closer to his real love, flora fauna.

Pascal’s art explores the simplistic beauty of plants around us and their artistic value in a unique way. His pressed flower prints paired with custom made wood frames captures the beauty of nature’s fleeting moments, preserving them in a timeless, yet rustic form.

Pascal and his wife Rita split their time between the Catskills, New York City and Europe.
