Biography
Patricia Houin is a visual artist whose hybrid practice mixes photography, embroidery, and installation. Trained at the Beaux-Arts de Versailles, she develops work where the image becomes a tipping point: a place where the real becomes clouded, moves, and reveals its sensitive areas. Her work explores the fragility of life, weightlessness, childhood, metamorphoses, and lingering traces. Embroidery introduces gesture, material, and time into the photographic instant, while the natural elements gathered along her walks anchor her work in an attention to the world, to what appears, disappears, or requires care. Between transparency and density, between presence and effacement, Patricia composes sensitive images that invite slowing down, to perceive differently what trembles, what persists, what transforms.
