Joséphine Wister Faure
Follow ArtistFrench-American artist, Joséphine Wister Faure graduated from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts of Paris. She has taken part in various exhibitions in France: Fondation d’Entreprise Ricard, Le Plateau, Centre Pompidou... Her work travelled to Italy, Germany, the United States and China. Joséphine Wister Faure’s work is built around her experiments on narration, through different forms of expression: video, performance, installation, writing, sculpture. She questions the mechanisms of perception as well as the observer’s implication and creates openings for a narrative in which no scenario is imposed. The expansion of space and time builds its very own dramaturgy, and the strangeness of the circumstances alone engages the viewer’s interpretation. In parallel to her visual artwork, Josephine has regularly worked in film, crafting props and accessories, which has led her to perfect different special effect techniques that serve her in her personal work. She lives and works in Los Angeles and in Paris.
