biography
Born in Bondy in 1996, Neïla Czermak Ichti lives and works in Marseille.
Her work moves between fiction and personal narrative. Her depictions of seemingly banal, everyday scenes take on hidden, magical and invisible dimensions.
In her drawings and paintings, she depicts the people in her life, be they family, friends, creatures from ancestral beliefs, or horrific and fantastic films. In her work, the monsters and hybrid beings that populate her universe act as protective figures, symbols of transitions and the unspoken. Neïla deals with inner journeys, solitude, stories and traumas handed down from generation to generation.
She graduated from the École des Beaux-Arts de Marseille in 2021. Her work has recently been shown at the Villa Arson in Nice, MO.CO in Montpellier, CAC Brétigny, as well as in the exhibition "Désolé" at the Edouard Manet gallery in Gennevilliers, curated by Mohamed Bourouissa.
At the invitation of Anna Labouze and Keimis Henni, Neïla Czermak Ichti has just taken part in the "Après l'éclipse" exhibition at the Magasins Généraux in Pantin, and is exhibiting at the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Nîmes for the new Triennale opening.
She is currently in residence at Triangle, Marseille.
