VICTORIAN THIBAULT-MALO


BIO

I’m a sculpture student with a background in interior design and architectural studies. Raised on a farm, seasonal rhythms and natural materials have deeply shaped how I think and create. My practice is a journey of material exploration—not only of physical substances but also of intangible currents like memory, care, and time. Travel and exploration are essential to how I gather and relate to materials.

Through quiet observation and gentle foraging gathering fragments from nature and experience—I weave these personal and emotional materials into tangible forms that invite transformation, reflection, and repair.

ARTIST STATEMENT

My practice is rooted in memory, time, care, cycles, and matter. I work with fragments of the living world —natural and found materials that carry texture and emotional weight. To me, matter is never just physical; it holds stories, traces of presence—of what was, what is becoming, what might return.

Through sculpture, writing, and photography, I seek to tell stories that emerge slowly —through forms, space, textures and silence. I am drawn to materials that shift and decay, and to processes like foraging, layering, composting, and tending. These gestures become ways of listening, of remembering, and of reimagining what was and what might still be. My work unfolds intuitively, shaped by place, season, and the quiet pace of natural rhythms. Each piece is a gesture of care—a space for reflection, for emotional repair, for lingering. I aim to create objects that hold memory while leaving space for others to enter the story.
