Read MoreInès Abergel’s work focuses on the close link between the construction of sensory perceptions and their transformation. The main subjects of her work are about embodiment, personal integrity and, more profoundly, the identity of oneself and others.
Inès Abergel’s research is based on the use of clay, which necessarily involves a close relationship with the material. Her experience of dance has had a major influence on her relationship with movement, and therefore with sculpture, and it is through performance experiments that she strives to find the right form to inhabit the material, making the creative process an act of creation.
To do this, she uses techniques such as sculpture, performance, video and photography to create hybrid works that question the boundaries and limits of each of these media and their possible (re)presentations.
Inès Abergel has recently exhibited her work in Hô-Chi-Minh City at the Luziger Art Space - a run space run by street artist Laurent Judge -, in China as part of the international Sino-French touring exhibition at the Tianjin Fine Arts Museum and the Changsha Institute of Painting, in Paris at the Bastille Design Center for the Amma Prize, in Marrakech for the Off of the 2nd and 3rd edition of the 1: 54, in Casablanca at the Rue de Tanger Contemporary Art Centre at the end of the annual «la Palmeraie» residencies organised by Le Lavoir (Paris), and in East Jerusalem as part of the Ziara exhibition at the Jerusalem Biennial.
