She graduated from ENSAD in Paris in 2022 and HEAR in Starsbourg in 2020.
Playing on both formal and conceptual paradoxes, Mathilde Albouy's sculptural work invites the viewer to a game whose rules are not clearly defined. We don't know whether the encounter with her sculptures is an act of courtship or predation, confronting us with a dangerous seduction. Nourished by feminist science fiction, Mathilde uses the fictions generated by her pieces as political tools to question an established, binary reality. By hijacking scales and materials, the sometimes sharp or toxic objects become individuals in their own right, revealing how the beauty of objects, particularly feminine ones, conveys patterns of oppression.
