DEWEGGIS Claire, Photography, guest artist, La fabrique des éléments

Claire Deweggis is a French photographer. She lives and works between Paris and Venice, weaving a poetic reflection on perception, the living, and the fleeting forms of nature throughout her work.

Initiated into analog photography during her adolescence, she has pursued a distinctly interdisciplinary path, studying fine arts (Penninghen), literature (Sorbonne – Paris IV), environmental aesthetics (EHESS), and gemology (ING). Initially working as a consultant in the fields of ecodesign and cultural industries, she later devoted herself entirely to photography.

Her artisanal and experimental practice explores the tensions between light, matter, and memory through traditional techniques—platinum-palladium printing, alternative chemical processes, engraving—and organic supports such as Japanese papers and natural pigments, conceived as delicate, responsive membranes. It is the tactile dimension of the image, its porosity to the world, that grounds her gesture, simultaneously technical and symbolic.

Claire Deweggis is represented in Paris by Galerie Didier Guedj.
