Magali Lambert, visual photographer

We're in Paris, in the middle of a winter that this time seems to have set in. Night falls early, the outside temperature borders on the indecent, and we're dreaming of just one thing: a cup of hot tea, a blanket and a roaring fire. It's the perfect time to push open the door to the cabinet of curiosities of Magali Lambert, a photographic artist who chisels images of bizarre beauty, enveloped in a strange warmth, flirting at all times with life and death.

 

 

Neko Neko: Magali, what are your sources of inspiration? Do you have any film, music, reading or exhibition recommendations to share at the moment?
Magali: At the moment, I'm listening to South American music from the 70s (Héctor Lavoe, Willie Colón, Celia Cruz). I'm re-reading Annie Ernaux, and I've discovered Clara-Dupont-Monod. I saw a sublime exhibition, "Les choses", at the Louvre, on the history of still life. Jim Jarmusch's Paterson is one of my favorite films.

Neko Neko: Is there a trip you've taken that has made a particular impression on you?
Magali: I spent a month in New York a few years ago, where I met some very open and welcoming artists. I also spent a year in Madrid, which I now consider my second city.

Neko Neko: How would you describe your clothing style?

Magali: My style is neat and comfortable. For my work, I need to be free to move.

Neko Neko: Do you have a favorite piece?

Magali: My earrings. I have lots of them, all very different.

Neko Neko: What do you like about Neko Neko bags?
Magali: They're beautiful, elegant, practical and suitable for all kinds of outfits.

Neko Neko: If we open your bag, what will we find inside?
Magali: My phone, my keys (with a scoubidou keyring given to me by a workshop participant), my cigarettes, my papers, my wallet, my mask and gel, my transport card, a lipstick. I also have a little secret lucky charm.

 

 

Magali Lambert lives and works in Paris. She is represented by the Vu' agency and gallery. Want to discover her work? Here's what's on in the coming months:

A Neko girl to keep an eye on!
