PORTFOLIO
CV


Born in 1993.
lives and works in Lausanne, Brussels and Paris.

«The art of Mona Filleul drags you into the cracks between life and survival. There is an off-the-grid quality to what she makes, where the grid is the one of actual supplies and that of art’s institutions. Choices in her work come across as responses to a recurring question: what is the most honest thing to do in a specific moment. Think of being cold and getting an extra sweater to counter the uncomfortable feeling. Indeed, sincerity prevails over trickery in her work, whether as a necessity or a contingency, whether as an a priori condition - she is that way - or as an a posteriori one - she will act that way.» — Piero Bisello
