Louise Covillas (1996) lives and works in Paris. A graduate of the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, she develops a sculptural practice rooted in collecting, close observation of living environments and an attention to the subtle forms of coexistence between human and non-human beings.

Her work has been presented in numerous group exhibitions in France and internationally, including the Prix Dior de la Colle Noire (2023, Chapelle des Beaux-Arts de Paris), Galerie Strouk (2024, Paris) and a group exhibition at POUSH (Aubervilliers).
