Faustine Badrichani lives and works between Hong Kong, New York, and Europe. Born and raised in Provence, southern France,  her childhood home was a veritable cabinet of curiosities, filled with fossils, cicada sloughs, and silent traces of life—artifacts of time and nature collected by her geologist parents. This ­early ­exposure to the organic transformations of the natural world ­profoundly shaped her artistic perspective, infusing her work with a deep connection between bodies and earth.

This connection to the rhythms of nature and time has ­permeated her art, where she explores the female form as both a ­subject and a landscape. Through her multidisciplinary practice—­spanning ­painting, cyanotypes, sculpture, and body prints—­Badrichani seeks to capture the fleeting, intimate moments of life, ­positioning the female body as a map of experience and ­emotion. Her work reflects the cyclical rhythms of existence, echoing the ­transformations of Mother Earth, where the body becomes a canvas for time’s ­passage and life’s unspoken narratives, and ­offering a raw yet poetic expression of the complex emotions tied to self-perception and identity.

Badrichani’s minimalist compositions and use of light invite viewers into a meditative contemplation of the interconnectedness of the human body, nature, and time, bridging the personal and the ­universal. Through her art, she reclaims the female form as a site of creation and transformation, offering a poetic exploration of identity, intimacy, and resilience.

In recent years, the artist’s work has been seen in group ­exhibitions at the Locker Room in Brooklyn, the Spring Break Art Show in 2021, during her residency on Governors Island, within the ­public ­institution LMCC, the Untitled Space gallery and the Ki Smith ­gallery in New York, as well as in France, at the Esther et Paul gallery.

In July 2024 she was part of the collective exhibition Ghosts of The Mundane in the Nathalie Karg Annex Gallery in New York.
