Julie Malbequi

Born in 1974, Julie Malbequi lives and works in the Parisian region. A sculptor and psychologist, she develops a practice nourished by a shared curiosity for the human being.

Her elongated characters, with imperfect, sometimes damaged bodies, allow us to see our fragilities without seeking to repair or conceal them. They invite us to look upon them with a softer gaze.

Long in the heart of her work, plaster today dialogues with bronze, metal, or concrete. Accidents, roughness, and irregularities of material participate in her sculptural language where strength and vulnerability coexist.

Today, her work opens up to public space and participatory projects. Sculpture thus becomes a way to meet places and those who inhabit them.
