Poet and visual artist, born in Montmartre, her famous stencils adorn the walls of the capital for several decades. His work, first considered as a minor and illegal mode, has since entered the biggest institutions: the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Municipal Fund for Contemporary Art in Paris, a retrospective in Singapore with the support of the French Embassy. Miss Tic, who represents the eternal feminine, plays herself with looks and thoughts.
