Magalie Vaz

Born in 1998, Magalie Vaz is a French graphic designer and artist who lives and works in Paris. She graduated from the École Nationale Supérieur d’Art et de Design de Nancy with a DNA in communication in 2020, followed by a DNSEP in communication in 2022 from the Institut Supérieur des Beaux-Arts Besançon. Her practice is based on research, illustrated by the principles of borrowing and gleaning elements, which she diverts and assembles in her projects. Using a range of media including photography, video and writing – combined with her graphic design practice – she explores notions linking ecology and decolonisation, diasporic circulation and circularity, and the uprooting of bodies (living human beings) and plants (living non-humans).
