Biography of both authors

EVE ALLEM
Eve, a visual artist, began with sculpture, but it is in the creation of jewelry that she found her greatest freedom of expression. A committed artist, she developed her own brand of Eco-Urban Chic accessories. At the same time, she studied French sign language (LSF) for which she developed a passion. In 2017, she founded the association Bleu Turquoise LSF to raise awareness among deaf and hearing people about protecting the environment through eco-responsible workshops.
The author of poems and slams that she never dared to share before, Jennifer's photos gave Eve the idea to combine her passion for writing with her interest in sign language. SIGNENCE shows her talent as a poet.

JENNIFER LESCOUËT
Jennifer was eight years old when "her ears made the decision to not to hear anymore." After six years of profound bilateral deafness, Jennifer rediscovered, at the age of fourteen, the world of sounds thanks to a cochlear implant. She then switched from one language to another but feels "at home" in sign language. "When I meet someone who’s deaf, I'm so happy to sign! When I meet hearing people... it's different. My shy character comes to the surface, I close myself again.”
Deprived of hearing during the years of childhood and adolescence when she should have been playing with her classmates, Jennifer developed her own view of the world and a passion for photography.
Now an adult, she pursued in that direction and became a photographer who has been exhibited and awarded several times, both in France and abroad.
