Mylène Jampanoï

Mylène Jampanoï studied screenwriting at La Fémis (the French national film school, officially the École Nationale Supérieure des Métiers de l'Image et du Son), where she discovered the power of writing. At the same time, she pursued a career as an actress. She has always seen drawing as a form of writing, and above all as a way of protecting herself from the world.

 

In 2020, she moved to Greece, living in Athens and on the island of Tinos. Greek culture became a powerful source of inspiration.

She is fascinated by the might of antiquity, which allowed her to reinvent herself.

In 2025, she returned to Paris, where the light is different and her color palette shifted. She broke free from her bestiary of Greek deities to create her own pantheon.

In 2026, Lena was published by Éditions Sixième(s), a novel co-written with Samuel Massilia and inspired by her own story.
