CAROLINA MESQUIDA - IDEAS

Caroline Mesquita (born 1989 in Brest, lives and works in Marseille) is a sculptor and video artist, mainly working with metal. She creates sculptures like airplanes, spaceships and motorcycles, all journey in the direction of a radical imagination. Raw material provides the spark that animates her narrative engagement with notions of science fiction, religion, embodiment, transformation, sensuality, and sociability. Mesquita's works are darkened, patinated and roughly textured through an oxidation process.
