Florence Cantié-Kramer's sculpture and installation work draws freely on her mastery of printmaking (her initial training at the Beaux-Arts in Paris) and deploys it in space. His works are distinguished by the importance given to the word and the choice of material (lead, wax, leather, felt, rubber, metal wire, fabric, neon lights, survival blankets, mirrors, etc.) - which brings his aesthetic closer to that of Arte Povera and structures the body of his work. Both raw and poetic, her work plays on oppositions between elements of language, drawn indiscriminately from popular culture (fragments of lyrics by the Rolling Stones and David Bowie) and literature (poems by Paul Celan), and the imaginary worlds associated with the materials she uses. In this way, even in urban spaces and natural landscapes, she evokes the contemporary relationship with different types of 'imprint' (material, retinal, sonic, memorial) and their persistence.
Florence Cantié-Kramer also produces videos and video-installations.
Her work has been shown regularly in France since the 1990s, and has been the subject of several public commissions.
Exhibitions include: Galerie Rabouan-Moussion, La Baule (2018); Musée Massena (2016); Palais Lascaris, Nice, (2016); Galerie Rabouan-Moussion, Paris, 2013.
