TESS DUMON
b. 1990Tess Dumon’s work evolves on different mediums that include drawing, sculpture, animation, and installations. She aims to transform the tragic and dramatic history of the life around her into the hints concealing in her works through mythical metaphors and a personal dream world. Tess Dumon tries to place the audience in the heart of her work to experience the atmosphere which can be so powerful that people forget the mundane world.
After training at the atelier of Sèvres in Paris, young talented artist Tess Dumon moved to London for pursuing sculpture studies in Central Saint Martins and finished her MA in Royal College of Art where she won the prize of Degree Show in 2016. In 2014 won the first prize of Born Award which celebrates creativity in design-led lifestyle with a focus on desirability, functionality, and integrity.
Following successful solo shows in Paris and Shanghai, Dumon’s work has been featured in main events such as PAD Art Fairs, Shanghai West Bund Art & Design Fair, Royal Ascot, Longines Masters, Christie’s Paris Tout P’tits Charity Sale, and a special exhibition at Le Royal Monceau-Raffles Paris, etc.
