Artists
Born in 1992, Loucia Carlier is a French artist and editor based in Paris. She is a graduate of Lausanne School of Art and Design (ECAL), and winner of the Émerige scholarship in 2020. Somewhere between sculpture and painting, her works form hybrid (post-apocalyptic) landscapes of humanity in the process of reorganization, and articulate millennials' underlying anxieties. The interdependence of the body to its environment is not necessarily the most gratifying in the era of capitalism, patriarchy and the ecological crisis. On occasion enhanced by makeup, Loucia's works are like a second skin: responsive to attacks from the outside and inflammations inside that we doggedly struggle to camouflage. Her work regularly features in solo exhibitions and group shows (CAC Brétigny, Salon de Montrouge, Villa Belleville, Art : Concept, Forde, Geneva Contemporary Art Center, Lausanne Fine Arts Museum, etc). Alongside her artistic practice, Loucia cofounded the independent review Klima, in 2018, devoted to encounters between contemporary artistic creation, university research, social sciences, politics and activist know-how.
