Aurélie Pellat

Aurélie Pellat's practice lies at the intersection of design, visual arts research, and leatherwork. Using salvaged fragments (leather, textiles, paper, wood), she creates works where matter becomes a living surface, a repository of memory and tension. Influenced by geometric abstraction, minimalism, and Arte Povera, her approach explores the balance between formal rigor and organic vibration.

Preserving forms and marks, she allows a discreet beauty to emerge, revealing the trace of time and the energy contained in each fragment. Cuts, seams, and assemblages bring to light the gesture, poised between restraint and intensity. Her compositions open a space where fragility and resilience, presence and absence, coexist.

Her collages and wall sculptures question the persistence of materials and the memory of the hand, transforming the vestiges of everyday life into a sensitive and embodied abstraction.

Originally from the French Riviera, she lives and works in Paris.
