Biography
Augustin Katz (born 1995, France — lives and works in Paris) is a painter whose work explores the ways in which images
function as structures of thought, shaping perception, memory and the experience of the unconscious. Through a figurative
practice marked by distortion and spatial tension, he constructs compositions that operate as mental architectures in
which psychic and perceptual states unfold. His figures appear as the remnants of a narrative that has already taken place,
suspended in an uncertain time where matter, memory and perception are in constant transformation. Moving between
folklore, religious archetypes, popular imagery, altered bodies and fragments of narration, his paintings act as fixing
chambers in which certain images seem to outlast their own disappearance.
