ANNE GEOFFROY

Anne Geoffroy's painstakingly rendered drawings and sculptures evoke her lost childhood, and suggest a cumbersome family legacy laden with secrets. In search of an identity, Geoffrey questions how and what we transmit to future generations. She refers to some of her drawings as "les Fantômes," or the ghosts, and some of her sculptures as "les Héritières," the heiresses. These pieces have a haunted quality, and carry the weight of Anne Geoffroy’s own past and that of her family.

About “Le petit People (2)”
As the heir to a family of women, Anne Geoffroy is the depository of secrets passed down from mother to daughter. She questions her condition as a woman who will not have children. The daughter Anne will never have is like the little sister of all of the missing children haunting her dormitory installations of small sculptural beds.
