A Belgian National, Pascale studied fine art and Painting in St Lucas art school in Ghent, Belgium, before subsequent postgraduate training with the Medical Artists Association, London UK. She is the co-founder of BIOMAB (Biological and Medical Art in Belgium) and was the president until May 2015.

In May 2015 the non-profit organization ARSIC (Art Researches Science International Collaboration) was founded. ARSIC is an international collective where Art and Science become entangled. This interdisciplinary association unites artists, scientists and those with a passion for the synergy between Art and Science, Technology and Philosophy. ARSIC pursues several goals, including the organisation and curation of SciArt exhibitions, conferences and collaborative projects, supporting the publication of articles, books and films. It provides the opportunity for artists and medical artists to visit labs and dissection rooms. Pascale was an external examiner for the medical art course at The Centre for Anatomy and Human Identification, University of Dundee, and is President of AEIMS (Association Europeenes des Illustrateurs Medicaux et Scientifiques). Pascale currently lives and works in London as a self-employed artist.
