Réjane Pratelli
Réjane was a bookish and annoyingly curious child who wanted to change the world. To do so, she earned a PhD in plant biology, and pursued her research in a number of countries before settling down (for now) in the USA. She didn’t have time to change the world much though, as an aneurysm ended her academic career in 2013. She turned to art to heal and find a new sense of purpose.
