Ilhem Ellouze

Ilhem Ellouze is recognized as one of the leading artists of the Tunisian art scene. She has been using what she calls “the module" for many years. This form, composed of two cones, could be interpreted as any signifier (the artist sometimes speaks of a representation of Man in his universality). 

But, by obsessively occupying the space (of the canvas, of the drawing, or even of the ground when it comes to his metal sculptures), this object exploited until it wears out, taken up and repeated, studied alone or in numbers, reveals a subject of plastic and aesthetic research on the question of the motif.

In 2022, she represents Tunisia at the 30th International Biennial of Contemporary Art in Dakar: Dak'Art 2022.
