Catherine Roch de Hillerin
18 stained glass windows
The Amis du Patrimoine Religieux Givetois, an association of 80 volunteers devoted to the conservation of religious in Givet, a village near the Belgian border, invited tenders for the renovation of the interior of the Church of Saint-Hilaire and the installation of 18 contemporary stained glass windows. In September 2017, the proposal presented by Catherine Roch de Hillerin, in partnership with the Atelier Simon-Marq, was unanimously selected. This was the second time Simon-Marq and Catherine Roch de Hillerin had worked together, after the creation of stained glass windows for the Church of St Memmie in Bergères-les-Vertus in 2018-2019.
An appeal is under way to fund the next two windows. Why not support this project (donations tax-deductible in France) and play a part in this major project en cliquant ici.

After many years of undergraduate and postgraduate studies and a stint at art school, Catherine Roch de Hillerin met Philippe Lejeune, who was her tutor for ten years and who determined her vocation as a painter. She has been awarded several prizes, in particular the DGAC (Civil Aviation) Prize at the Salon du Bourget in 2013, after which she was appointed official painter for the Armed Forces specialising in Aviation and Space.
In 2014 she won a bronze medal at the Salon des Artistes Français at the Grand Palais in Paris.
Her prize-winning painting exhibited in 2015 at the Salon des Peintres at the Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace in Le Bourget was acquired by the Ministry of Defence.
