Born in Paris, lives and work in Milan
Coquelicot Mafille research moves around play, onirical dimensions, language spaces, Nature and nature of human relationships. Her work invites to memory and day by day perspectives from a poetic and nomadic vision, and investigates heterochrony and heterotopy, overlaping the sense of things. She tells about human, animal, vegetal moments, made by little things of nothing, made of gestures and pauses, waiting and life, mixed to history facts, politic, and absurdity that arises from that.
Her multifaced practice touches more media as embroidery, writing, painting, on canvas, fabric, paper, urban wall and glass windows, with thread, painting, stickers ; the investigation of images – photography, collage– the manipulation of sound - music, ambient recording, and simple manipulation: clay, fabric, fiber.
