Chloé Clément

Chloé Clément was born and lives in Paris. She is a screenwriter and director and is currently developing a documentary film on post-traumatic stress that occurred in the survivors of the November 13, 2015 attacks – a reflection on loss, mourning, death. At the same time, she is the president of the association Force de Coriolis, which organizes writing workshops with young people who have dropped out of school.

Thomas Collinet

Thomas Collinet is a French painter, sculptor, publisher and curator based in Paris. He was born in 1990. In 2018, he founded the Firstlaid publishing house with Zoe Sylvestre and Jesse Wallace, which he continues to run today with the ambition of highlighting the young art scene that makes up his immediate environment. He takes part in the creation of the scenography for several audio-visual productions such as Reveil sur mars by Dea Gjinovci in 2018 (Tribeca) and music videos such as DreamCore by Regina Démina in 2022.

Claudio Coltorti

Claudio Coltorti is an artist born in Napoli, Italy in 1989.
His work balances a figurative and abstract, like a dance between dream and reality. His will is to create paintings that belong to painting, pictures that aren’t just tied to one specific era but can speak across time. He largely draws from art history as a departure point, analyzing what has been done to try to learn from great masters. He builds his pictures layer by layer, letting the pigment itself fuse and settle in the depths of the fabric. His will is to let the viewer freely interpret his work, he does not like to impose what a picture should be or represent. His paintings feel deeply personal and universal at the same time, as if they are emerging from the fog of forgotten memories.

Anne Commet

Anne Commet (born in 1970 in Rueil Malmaison) works with painting and photography through the print and video practice as painting in motion. Her work relates to the experience of landscape. Through wandering, this experience becomes a journey through space, time and our deepest sensations. For the artist, questioning the values of experience is to seek to understand why a place is important or what memory we keep of a moment. It is thus to explore our relation to the world and to time in particular through what persists by the trace.

Caroline Corbasson

Caroline Corbasson (born in 1989 in Saint-Étienne) graduated with honors from the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2013. Her work explores how the observation of space and the improvement of astronomical tools have caused a rift between immediate perception, that of the average individual and that of scientists, on man’s place in the universe. Her drawings, sculptures, and videos carefully examine this expanse, connecting the infinitely large, whose evolution dates back to a precultural era, and the depth of the infinitely small, perceptible thanks to the tools of science.

Jerôme Cortie

Jérôme Cortie (b. 1992, Aubervilliers). His research unfolds along a continuum in which past, present and future intermingle, and in which the virtual and the physical hybridise into installations, videos or video games. Questions of interactivity and shared experience lie at the heart of his practice, with the aim of granting viewers genuine agency.

Anne Corté

Anne Corté creates shows as if she were preparing surprises.
She starts the performance with baroque and sportive sociological collages. This is followed by a score of passers-by, a vertical chain reaction of rope workers, a duet with a live turkey, a hundred versions of a jackass poetess, a ghost ball.
She has been performing "Autokèn - autotune tragedy" since 2019 and is preparing a new chemistry piece, scheduled to premiere in 2023.

Elena Costelian

Elena Costelianen (born in 1979 en Romania) is rooted in a process that is linked to roaming and exploring singular territories whose image is familiar to us. Her installations and performances play with the idea of displacing our image of the elsewhere. Places that have witnessed contemporary history are the subject of a narration where the image and its transposition are interpreted through slogans that are tinged with humor and poetry, allowing the spectator to fully experience an invitation to the elsewhere.

Julie Coulon

Julie Coulon is a French artist born in 1997. Through performance and monumental installations, she explores the ways in which cinema shapes the contemporary condition. After studying at the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris and the School of Visual Arts in New York, her installations oscillate between documentary and fiction. Both figurative and conceptual, her practice spans photography, film, performance, and curating.

Max Coulon

Max Coulon was born in 1994 in Strasbourg and lives in Paris. He works in the workshops of Poush in Aubervilliers. He is represented by the Romero Paprocki Gallery in France and by the Nosbaum Reding Gallery in Luxembourg and Belgium. He graduated from the Beaux Arts de Paris in 2021, after spending three years in Stephan Balkenhol's studio at the Staatliche Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Karlsruhe.

Morgan Courtois

Mainly sculptural although also photographic and olfactory, the work of Morgan Courtois defends a return to an aesthetic inspired by the craft, the camp and the baroque. Courtois was born in Abbeville, France in 1988 and lives and works in Paris. He received the Meurice Prize in 2017 and joined the Rijksakademie (Amsterdam) in 2018. His work has recently been shown at the Musée d'art Moderne de la ville de Paris, the Pernod Ricard Foundation and the Zadkine Museum in Paris or at the Dubai World Expo or Townhouse in Cairo, Egypt.

Paul Créange

Paul Créange (born in 1987) graduated from the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2015. He developed a multifaceted artistic practice, blending photography and sculpture, the former being the essential and structuring element of his tridimensional works. His works subtly explore the questions of space, light, and frame, while defying the distinctions between abstraction and figuration, or inside and outside. Rigorously and poetically, he manages to represent, through the still image, time and its ineffable multiplicity.

Nicolas Crichton

Nicolas Crichton (born in 1989) studied at Les Gobelins and then at the Beaux-Arts de Paris. A resident at POUSH since March 2025, he paints a world where the everyday becomes strange. His work explores the in-between, both in its subjects and in his practice, moving from scrawled drawings to large-format paintings. He blends real objects with personal inventions. His familiar forms are slightly distorted, his laughs a little unsettling. Crichton reveals what disturbs us in what reassures us, exploring the troubled poetry of our daily habits.

Diane Dal-Pra

Diane Dal-Pra (born in 1991, in Périgueux) graduated with a degree in design and a diplôme supérieur d’arts appliqués with honors. She works predominantly on large canvases giving a monolithic stature to her sculptural figures that are formed from an assortment of objects and bodily forms. Her compositions of varying textures and translucencies appear at the same time both three-dimensional and monumental yet also flat and one-sided.

Justine Daquin

Justine Daquin is an exhibition curator. Her research is related to liquid and liminal territories, language and the preservation of marginalized voices. Her hybrid practice leads her to create programs thought out over time (such as Out.of.the.blue.map, from 2018 to 2021), mixing work production, exhibitions and publishing. Her new research, Tales of Old Women, was recently integrated into WE ARE OCEAN, an official United Nations project contributing to the decade of ocean sciences.

Clara Darrason

Clara Darrason (b. 1988, Paris) is a Franco-American curator and entrepreneur. Since 2024, she has been running her own company specializing in curation, studio and estate management, as well as advisory services. Previously, she founded and co-directed THE CHIMNEY (2015-2020), a gallery in Brooklyn NY where she developed a program focusing on commissioned installations, revitalizing non- traditional, historical, and industrial buildings. She collaborated with over 70 artists to create 31 exhibitions and 3 festivals. Her exhibitions were reviewed in The New York Times, Artforum, The Art Newspaper, New York Magazine among others and artists she worked with went on to exhibit in renowned institutions such as Le Centre Pompidou, le Palais de Tokyo, The Hammer Museum to name a few. She worked for seven years (2016-2024) for Almine Rech gallery, her last position as global manager of operations. Clara currently works with James Brown Estate and recently curated exhibition at POUSH, Selebe Yoon, (Dakar, Senegal), Jousse Entreprise Gallery (Paris).

Corentin Darré

Corentin Darré (born in 1996) graduated from the École Nationale Supérieure d’Arts de Paris-Cergy in 2020. His work revolves around our relationship with the digital world, the
mutations it generates and the new divides that it creates. Installation, sculpture, video, publishing, and computer-generated images are combined in sensitive and fictional narratives. The contemporary mythologies that he invokes question the “self” in its relationship to love, sex, and violence.

Petr Davydtchenko

Petr Davydtchenko was born in Arzamas-16, a closed military town in Russia, in 1986. After completing his BA at Konstfack in Sweden, he moved to London to study sculpture at the Royal College of Art. He subsequently developed his artistic practice across Europe. In the post-industrial village of Maubourguet in southwest France, he survived exclusively on roadkill for three years. His work explores systems of power, survival and value through long-durational projects that frequently position the body as material.

Marlon de Azambuja

Marlon de Azambuja (born in 1978 in Porto Alegre, Brazil) is a multidisciplinary artist. His work often focuses on questions related to the city, architecture and our bodies’ perception of our environments, whether they are physical, political or cultural.

Sylvain Debelfort

Sylvain Debelfort is a designer. Juggling notions such as the banal and the sacred, the absurd and the sublime, his production plays with opposites. His objects oscillate between industrial projects, self-productions, or sculptural objects. Materials and techniques of diverse origins meet, embrace, oppose each other. His objects play with shapes and ambiguous aesthetics to make a hook to our good taste to propose an elsewhere. They are a step aside, a way of crossing.

Cyril Debon

Artist, sentimentalist painter and animal ceramist, founder of the modeling agency Mannequin Madelaine, the work of Cyril Debon (born in 1987 in Bruges) is an exercise in eclecticism, in search of the best ways to evoke universal emotions such as love, or melancholy. He elaborates his own imagery of Epinal where art history, children's books and B-movie archetypes are reconciled. His production crosses the register of artistic genres like a pawn on a goose game board.

Anna de Castro Barbosa

Anna de Castro Barbosa (b. 1995, Montpellier) graduated from the Sorbonne in 2018, the Beaux-Arts de Nantes in 2021 and the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2024. In the same year, she won the Bredin-Prat scholarship and the Diptyque scholarship, and exhibited at Crush and the Prix Dauphine. Her work is about telling stories, seeking out and provoking relationships through disquiet and strangeness, involving relationships of seduction, attraction and repulsion, turning sculptures, montages and systems into spaces of gesture. The result is an uneasy coexistence, a series of attempts at strategies and tinkering to understand where the encounter lies, how to make contact possible, and what the reaction should be: allergy, disgust, eroticism, affection.

Zohreh Deldadeh

Zohreh Deldadeh is a curator and art researcher based in Tehran and Paris. She has been working with numerous art galleries, festivals, foundations and institutions both in Iran and internationally such as Dastan Gallery (Iran), Pejman Foundation (Iran), Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris (MAM) (France), Lodz Photo Festival (Poland), Parallel Platform (Portugal, Poland) and Khoj Institute (India).
In her curatorial practice, she mainly focuses on social and political issues. Her passion for archival material and collections led her to take an interest in her current projects.

Bryce Delplanque

Bryce Delplanque's (b. 1993) work does not come with a set of instructions. There are no rules for viewing his paintings, they come from intuition. These images have a strong connection to nostalgia as an incessant surge that becomes the driving force behind painting. His paintings of postcards, newspaper clippings and found photo memories are linked to a form of nostalgia, standing for privation, not regret. In substance, Bryce Delplanque's work questions the physicality of the media and motifs used, the relationship between text and image, and the potential of technical images in the apprehension of representation.
