Eva Jospin, born in 1975, graduated from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2002. She currently lives and works in Paris and has been creating forest and architectural landscapes out of various media for the past 15 years.
Her work blurs the boundaries between the natural and the man-made, the real and the fictional, and the familiar and the unusual. The meticulous details and interplay of light and shadow evoke a sense of wonder and contemplation. Eva Jospin's work invites the viewer to reflect on our relationship with nature and the stories it holds, her work creating a dreamlike reality.

I love the texture of the cardboard and the details of the work. The way the architectural aspects are built into the natural environment really creates a unique and captivating world. I heavily agree with the ideas behind her work, as they are similar to my "structured vs. organic" approach.
In 2015 she won the Prix de l’Académie des Beaux-Arts and throughout 2023 some of the artist's works were presented at contemporary art fairs around the world as part of the carte blanche given to the artist by the house Ruinart.
