SIXTINE DE THÉ

Sixtine de Thé is a French visual artist and photographer based in Paris. Her work takes the form of a sensory mapping of the visible and the invisible, with themes such as the body, the face, and territory playing a central role. Often teetering on the brink of disappearance or destruction, her images seek to answer the question: what remains? 

She has exhibited in France at Private Choice, the Dohyang Lee Gallery, the Photo Saint-Germain festival, and the Luma Foundation (Arles), as well as abroad (Lebanon, United States). In 2021, her project *Pellicules Aveugles* received an honorable mention from the jury of the Dior Prize for Young Talents. In 2022, she was awarded a residency at Villa Al Qamar, the French Institute of Lebanon’s residency program, as well as the research and production residency at the Centre Photographique d’Île-de-France for her project *Quelque chose qui noire*, a photographic installation on darkness in Lebanon, which was also named a “Coup de cœur” by the LE BAL/ADAGP Prize in 2023. 

Born in France in 1991, Sixtine de Thé lives and works in Paris. She graduated in 2021 from the Beaux-Arts de Paris, after studying art history at the École Normale Supérieure and the École du Louvre.
