Céline Ducret
(Swiss, b. 1992. Lives and works in Paris)
Céline Ducret reflects on the human-made impact on post-industrial ecologies and their tangible traces. Her artistic practice acknowledges the inherent agency of material, focusing on textiles, particularly lace-making. In her installations, a change of state and scale occurs, between the monumental and the imperceptible, the tangible and the virtual, through the use of moving images, sounds, and ceramics. She creates alternative narratives to enable new perspectives and thus develop spaces to reflect on the interactions of ecosystems, fluid borders and transformative mutual relationship.
Céline’s work envisions a transition from a human-centered perspective to a multi-species worldview. She explores the relationship between “nature” and humans in the past, present, and possible future. Through rigorous experimentation to alter, modify, stretch, and compress the significance of matter, she reveals contemporary fossils of our modern, materialistic reality.
Graduating with an MA in Mixed Media Textiles and Cultural and Historical Studies from the Royal College of Art in 2019, Céline has developed a research methodology grounded in her physical experience of spaces.

Sometimes collaborating with hydrologists, her practice has taken her to various aquatic environments, including the Kyzulsu Glacier in Pamir, the Alps, and Greenland. She has exhibited her work in the UK, Finland, and Switzerland.
