Lia Rochas-Páris
A multi-disciplinary artist, Lia Rochas-Páris composes with the elements through a variety of media: collage, photography, stop-motion, photo-novels, poetry… Her approach is based on the premise that everything is a collage, treating each resource as a piece of a puzzle.
She explores the materials she considers to be the vestiges of an era, with the aim of archiving memory and creating a personal archaeology. This desire to make a world is reflected in the recurring themes she tackles, such as the attraction of bodies in space, erotic deconstruction, weightlessness and movement, minerality, the cosmos and the Milky Way.
Over the past fifteen years, her work has been the subject of numerous solo and group exhibitions in Paris, Arles, Amsterdam, Brussels, Osaka and New York, and she has also taken part in fairs such as Pad x Paris, Art Brussels, Paris Design Week, etc. Her works are part of private collections such as the Villa Benkemoun in Arles, and have been acquired by hotels such as Les sources de Caudalie, the Fiac hotel, the La Dame des Arts hotel and the New hotel group. Some of his collaborations, in keeping with his aesthetic and values, have been with Bien fait, Sony Music France, Gucci, John Lobb,Dammann Frères, Mobilier Drucker, Simone Pérèle, Pinton 1867, RUS, GQ France, Girls Like Us, Maiwe…
