Biography
Laure Catugier experiments with the forms of existing construction and evaluates them with her own measurement tools. Based on a language specific to architecture, she tries to capture the emptiness that inhabits them. Through an interdisciplinary approach, she attempts to foreground the void, absence, silence.
She applies protocols that attempt to confuse all indications of time and space, often amplified by a back-and-forth mechanical gesture. With this closed-circuit system, she strives to sabotage and jeopardize the apparently stable foundations on which the Architect, with a capital “A”, relies on.
Supported by humor and irony, her universe is composed of architectonic elements inspired by the modernist Movement. A place where the body is often under stress and searches for its own equilibrium.
