Bio

Carole Fékété is a French artist born in 1970 in Alger (Algeria), she lives and works in the Paris region. Her work is based on photography, film, collages and installation projects. She deals with a wide range of subjects related to individual and collective memory. Exploring creative processes and its moving borders, her entire work is similar to a pool of heterogeneous pictures, collected objects, and stories. Like the technique of cutting and pasting pictures on paper she practices, (re)arranging and combining disparate elements on the idea of collage is central to all of her work. Through her sensitive approach of ancestrial gestures, forms and traditions, she observes how transmission is passed and conveyed into contemporary life, by making connections between past and present.
