is a Swiss contemporary artist known for her use of natural materials set against abstract backgrounds in her mixed media installations and her interest in ecological conservation. Her works explore the lifecycle of natural materials, juxtaposing wooden sculptures against graphic wall paintings. For each piece, she uses her unique measurement system so that every artwork relates to one another. “For me, the work is about bringing people together…allowing us to see and engage with an art installation that embraces all of the senses,” she says. Comte was born in 1983 Grancy, Switzerland near the Jura Mountains, where the dense forestry of the region inspired her art journey. As a student at the École cantonale d’art de Lausanne, she picked up a chainsaw one day and used it to create a wood sculpture, a feature and technique she is known for today. After graduating in 2007, she received a Masters of Art in Science of Education at Haute Ecole Pédagogique, Visual Arts in 2010, studying educational pedagogy in order to teach art to children. In 2013, her work was included in a group show at Gladstone Gallery in New York, leading to a solo show later that year at Gladstone Gallery in Brussels. Her career grew from there, leading to exhibitions across the world, including König Galerie in Berlin, Art Basel, and moCa in Cleveland, Ohio. In 2019, she collaborated with the Alligator Head Foundation in Portland, Jamaica to create “The Cacti Series,” a collection of concrete sculptures placed underwater at the East Portland Fish Sanctuary in Jamaica as part of a larger project to help inspire people to learn more about conservation and climate change, protect marine life, and ultimately revive the local coral reef. Comte lives in Berlin, Germany, where she continues to source materials for most of her sculpture from the forests near her hometown, using wood from trees that have been felled for ecological reasons.
