Based on narratives relating environmental problems, sexual dysfunction, religious and moral decadence and physical disorientation, the work of Agathe Snow, who was born in Corsica in 1976 and lives in New York, evokes the hell of decaying worlds but also suggests deliverance, celebration and survival.

Her installations generally comprise one or two monumental sculptures together with smaller pieces and performances. Her work featured recently in the Whitney Biennial in New York.
