Pauline Guerrier (b. 1990 Clamart, FR), lives and works in between Paris, FR & Lisboa, PT. 

Pauline Guerrier, a contemporary artist, divides her time between the cities of Paris and Lisbon. Born in 1990 in Clamart into a family of passionate artists, the artistic influence of her father, a sculptor, her mother, a choreographer, as well as that of her grandmother, a ceramist, and her grandfather, a painter, has shaped her path from a very young age.

In 2009, she enrolled at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, beginning her first three years in the studio of Giuseppe Penone, before joining Ann Veronica Janssens’ atelier until she graduated in June 2014. Pauline Guerrier embodies a nomadic spirit, setting up her studio according to her travels across Italy, Morocco, Portugal, Chile, Benin, Senegal, Japan, and India. She draws her inspiration and knowledge from collaborations with weavers, glassblowers, engravers, glassmakers, and mosaic artists. 

In her relentless pursuit of mastering the craft techniques of the world, Pauline Guerrier confronts ancient knowledge with contemporary issues, exploring themes such as ecology, science, faith, and superstition. She expresses herself through various artistic forms, from drawing to sculpture, as well as performance. For her, the artistic medium is merely a vehicle for a message—a language made up of an alphabet of symbols meant to convey profound ideas.
