For two decades, Mathilde Rosier's work has demonstrated a remarkably unique preoccupation with the tension between humans and nature. In her paintings, performances and films, she constructs poetically surreal worlds between dream and intellect and reflects on visible and hidden relationships between man, culture and nature. Her works “ rapture” us into new models of thought and at the same time are based on precise research into political, social and economic contexts. This combination is based on Mathilde Rosier's studies in social and economic sciences, which she completed before studying art. Already in the 1990s, during and after her studies at the École des Beaux Arts in Paris, she lived and observed the contrasts between city and countryside, between nature and agriculture. At the beginning of the noughties, Mathilde lived and worked in the metropolises of Amsterdam, New York, Los Angeles and Berlin before deliberately moving back to the French countryside in Burgundy in 2015, where she deepened her exploration of the tension between nature and agrarianism. Mathilde Rosier: “My workshop has a panoramic view of the countryside: Every spring and summer, I look out on a painting - that of the fields whose colors change over time.”
