Louise Gaubert

Louise Gaubert (b. 2003, France) is a French artist currently pursuing an MA in Fine Art at Central Saint Martins in London, after completing her BA at the Beaux-Arts de Cergy (ENSAPC).

 

In her practice, she explores intimacy through themes of memory, love and the tension between visible and unspoken. She often links her personal history with raw and domestic materials, like wood, glass, concrete and metal.

 

She is interested in what remains–traces, objects, gestures–and how they reveal our emotions, vulnerabilities, and attachments. Through sculpture, installation, photography and printed matter, she creates spaces of encounters where the viewer is invited to slow down, come closer, and feel.

 

Gaubert's work speaks of things left unsaid.  She often includes text, such as unsent messages, notes from my phone and fragments of thoughts that she embeds and hides in materials. She tries to reflect on the emotion of struggling communication, pauses and hesitations that one carries inside themselves.

 

Symbols of the domestic space serve not only as objects, but as representations of thresholds. Between self and other, inside and outside, her approach is shaped through the questioning of invisible labor and sexism, emotional expectations, romantic narratives and the weight of care.
