Capucine Gros’s conceptual work probes the politics of mapping through artist books, ink drawings, sculptures, textiles, installations, and time-based projects.

Matter of Fact, the artist’s second exhibition at the gallery, brings together three bodies of recent work in which the artisanal techniques of weaving (White Flags, 2020–2025), embroidery (Universal Values, 2020–2025), and papermaking (New Worlds, 2024) host acts of representation, where geopolitics are fused into the very material of the work.

Born in 1989 in Switzerland, Capucine Gros lives in Bucharest, Romania, where she also co-directs the festival and think tank Unfinished.
