xavier veilhan was born in 1963 and lives and works in paris. Since the late 1980s, he has developed a recognized body of work inspired by both formal classicism and high technology, encompassing sculpture, painting, installation, performance, video, and photography.

what is striking about alice is its low-poly aesthetic: the female body is entirely decomposed into triangular geometric facets, like a 3d video game model from the 1990s rendered as a physical sculpture.
