About
Born in 1985 in Beirut, Carine Bovey lives and works in Geneva. In parallel with her art, she worked for a long time in the press and in advertising in the luxury and fashion sector. In her work, she often uses unusual materials such as saffron and eye shadow in addition to oil paint. Like the biophilia hypothesis, the artist highlights the similarities that remain between our anatomy and plants, but also our instinctive affinity for life uniting us with all living entities. The artist is also interested in the origins of life and the advances in science and medicine. Making what at first glance might seem taboo beautiful and acceptable is one of his primary vocations.
