Biography
Jacqueline H-Botquelen is a Franco-Swiss multidisciplinary artist whose textured, patinated surfaces seem shaped by time itself.
Her practice draws inspiration from a range of sources, including the collective unconscious, mythology, and human roots. Through a distinctly contemporary sensibility, the artist revisits these universal themes and offers a fresh perspective on our relationship to the world, memory, and humanity.
Painting, sculpture, metal, glass, paper, and other materials all inform her work. Jacqueline H-Botquelen explores these mediums with both rigor and sensitivity, with a particular focus on glass paste, a demanding material she has been working with for more than twenty years. Guided by her creative instinct, she continues to expand her artistic investigations and experiments.
Her work is now well established in both the Swiss and American markets. It is held in numerous international private collections and in major institutions such as the European Museum of Modern Glass in Rödental, Germany, the Stourbridge Glass Museum in Wordsley, England, and the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia, USA. For the past decade, the artist has worked with Habatat Gallery in Royal Oak, Michigan.
