Aurore Monteil
Artist Biography / Artist Statement:
Aurore Monteil is a French architect and multidisciplinary artist living between Paris and Lisbon. Trained in architecture and contemporary dance in Paris, she later specialized in the ancestral art of hand-painted azulejos in Lisbon. In 2024, she founded 4A Studio, a space for experimental research bridging architecture, visual arts, and craft through a vibrational, sensory-based approach.
Her work—spanning azulejos and multi-technique art—explores how materials, forms, and frequencies affect the body and perception of space. Drawing on sacred geometry, intuitive movement, and chromatic fields, she creates installations as energetic ecosystems, opening portals to the unseen. Her public commission for a social housing building near Paris earned the 2025 Regional Prize from Ateliers d’Art de France (Heritage category). Her work invites a shift in perspective, revealing subtle dimensions that shape our human experience.
