malatsion (b. 1974) is a visual artist living in Frankfurt (DE). She graduated in 1998 in art history, archaeology and archaeozoology at the University of Poitiers (FR) and 2003 in fine arts at the University of Strasbourg (FR). Having worked as an archaeozoologist before turning to arts studies, she was interested in environmental problems created by civilizations in ancient times.
The degradation of ecosystems and of our own bodies remains at the centre of her artistic practice in connection with life sciences, therapeutic approaches and ecology. Her work finds its expression in installations that stage sculptures, drawings, photographs and props in a fictitious narration and place which mix realism and fantasy.
