Sandrine Llouquet Biography

Often in Western philosophy, reason dominates through concepts or theory. Some writers like Albert Camus have tried to express philosophical ideas through novels or theatre by highlighting sensation, emotion, and perception (a way that was reserved for music), by using narrative and characters. I try to place myself within this continuity; in thinking that art could encompass philosophy, not by visually explaining a concept, in the manner of Joseph Kosuth for example, but by making people feel it.

The figures I create tap into the register of childhood and the transition to the age of maturity, of transformation (mutants, hybrids), and of wandering. They raise philosophical questions, ones that are particularly related to the quest for the self (the becoming), and of impermanence. Questions that I try to put into perspective with the thoughts of Friedrich Nietzsche, Gilles Deleuze, Arthur Schopenhauer, and with Buddhist philosophy.

While the creation of an artwork is sometimes quite a long process, the finished work can look similar to a sketch. The unfinished appearance to my work illustrates the notion of ‘becoming’ while at the same time constituting wholeness; a whole and complete artwork comprised of several steps.
