Biography

In her sculptures, installations, set designs and performances, Alix Boillot treats water, a common and universal good, as a bonding agent, an element that facilitates relationships. Working with rain, snow or ice, which she combines with other materials such as plaster or fabric, she seeks simplicity of gesture, uneventfulness and sobriety of form, in order to highlight the intangible and the ephemeral. Her work is both poetic and ecological; it involves rituals of giving and communion, a bonding of nature and humans.
