Artist of the Collection

Sophie Dubosc

Born in 1974 at Paris, France

Since the mid-2000s, Sophie Dubosc has been developing a singular artistic practice through her complex connection to the modernist heritage. She employs various references by exploring the work of the surrealists as much as the minimalists, drawing inspiration from both Anti-Form and land art. Mainly centred around sculpture and space, her work combines heterogeneous materials, whether natural—ash, hair, fabric, wood—or artificial, such as rubber boots or kitchen cabinets.

Born in 1974 in Paris, Sophie Dubosc lives and works in Rouen. She is a graduate of the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, the Université Paris-Sorbonne, and the École du Louvre. She was awarded the PHotoEspaña Discovery Prize in 2001 and the Altadis Prize in 2006.
