A. Duprez
Alexandra Duprez

Everything is a sign in Alexandra Duprez’s work. Her enigmatic pieces are wondrous tales—dreamed, crafted, and at times collaged—where fragments of life dissolve into abstraction. Alexandra Duprez’s work overflows—off the canvas, across book covers she envelops, onto repurposed cardboard, and beyond what we can grasp of her practice. Her body of work is diverse, yet held together by a secret, almost silent thread. Within a universe unlike any other, she weaves a wondrous world where dogs, horses, and snakes coexist with humans. Deconstructed and in flux—represented through legs, hands, or eyes—these beings emerge as impenetrable points of consciousness. This first monograph brings together over a hundred works, carefully selected from a prolific body of art. The book opens with a text by Sophie Kaplan, director of La Criée Contemporary Art Center (Rennes), and is punctuated by a conversation between Alexandra Duprez and Cécile Poimbœuf-Koizumi (Chose Commune), accompanied by studio photographs taken in Douarnenez.
