Victor Cord'homme was born in 1991 in Paris to a French father who was a film decorator and a Danish mother who was a painter. A graduate of the Beaux Arts de Paris in 2017, he trained in the studios of the painter Dominique Gauthier and the sculptor Tadashi Kawamata before settling at the Grandes Serres de Pantin, where he was one of the founding members. Winner of the 36th International Takifuji Art Award, he has participated in various group exhibitions in France and abroad. He was spotted in 2019 during the 100% à la Villette exhibition by Hermès, for which he created a series of window displays in Shanghai and Tokyo.

A multidisciplinary artist, Victor Cord'homme is constantly renewing his practice and technique through different media, supports and formats. His installations of paintings, sculptures and mobiles highlight reinvented motifs and everyday objects. In his studio, a repertoire of shapes, used materials and spare parts waiting to find their final place. Fans, motors, solar panels, construction site blocks, trash cans and public benches rub shoulders with metal rods, bits of painted canvas, ceramics and pieces of wood in an uncertain order. Like a distant echo of certain post-war artists, Rauschenberg or Tinguely to name but a few, Victor Cord'homme's work reveals a real fascination for recycled materials and objects whose meaning and purpose he diverts. He also questions movement and is passionate about the different means of energy production. A tireless dreamer, he nonetheless remains extremely lucid about the modern world and its many excesses.
