About the Artist
Acclaimed French artist Pauline Curnier Jardin (b. 1980, Marseille) is celebrated for her audacious and boundary-pushing artistic practice that seamlessly blends performance, video, and sculptural elements. Her work is characterized by a theatrical sensibility, often drawing inspiration from folklore, mythology, and feminist theory to construct richly layered, carnivalesque narratives. Curnier Jardin's artistic universe is one where the sacred and profane, the beautiful and the grotesque, coalesce to challenge conventional perceptions of gender, power, and societal rituals. Her highly visceral and often humorous approach subverts traditional forms, creating immersive experiences that confront viewers with their own discomfort and preconceived notions, celebrating transgression and liberation.
