Aurélie Mathigot is very attached to the practice of photography, which she stitches up in places to freeze a movement, to underline a detail, but in parallel to this work, in two dimensions, she makes sculptures in rope, wool, cotton, using the technique of crochet and by associating other materials from our daily life: wood, wax, ceramics.
Her work is built around an illusion of reality: to give a new appearance, to conceive a textile-reality of what surrounds us, with an idea of covering and invasion.
For his first tapestry of lice, the artist started from his sketchbooks made during his travels.
