Anaïs Thomas

“Originally from the North of France, I grew up in an industrial and urban landscape. First a student at the École Nationale Supérieure d’Art in Tourcoing, then at the École Nationale Supérieure d’Art et Design in Dijon, my studies allowed me to question the textile industry, its production, and to turn my attention to the people who work in it.

My practice revolves around the notions of transmission and the reappropriation of materials while questioning human relationships, class struggle, and working-class labor.

Using various materials, I draw inspiration from real events, everyday life, and the people around me.”
