Iroise Doublet (born in 1993, Rennes) lives and works in Clermont-Ferrand. She received her MFA from ENSBA Paris in 2017. Valuing a holistic approach to reality and the fragment as a prismatic form of its experience, she develops work at the intersection of painting, drawing, and writing. Marked by a lineage of women artists, her approach is permeated by the feminist aspects of the history of representation, narration, and self-writing. Between materiality, visual pleasure, and conceptual language, she questions the autonomy of painting within a heterogeneous practice, renewing genres in the era of post-media visual culture: Are there female subjects? Can desire be reinvented with and in painting?
Iroise Doublet has had recent solo exhibitions at La Tôlerie, Clermont-Ferrand (2025); Café des Glaces, Tonnerre (2023); Kunsthalle Marcel Duchamp | The Forestay Museum of Art, Cully (2023); and Gallery Ann Mazzotti, Basel (2021). Her work has been shown in group exhibitions at Ausstellungsraum Klingental, Basel (2025); In Extenso, Clermont-Ferrand (2024); Strike, Paris (2024); Dorossy Salon, Seoul (2021), among others.
Iroise Doublet received the Lélo Fiaux Foundation Grant (2023 & 2024) and the Novembre à Vitry Prize (2018). She has participated in residency programs such as Hôtel des Glaces, with the FRAC Bourgogne, Tonnerre (2023); Fondazione Lac o Le Mon, Lecce (2018); and the Kimonos Art Center, Paphos (2017).
Her works are featured in the permanent collection of the City Art Fund, Vitry-sur-Seine (2018).
She is currently a member of the editorial board of La belle revue, published by In Extenso, Clermont-Ferrand (FR).
