Delphine Lebourgeois studied Fine Art in Lyon and completed a Masters in Illustration at Central St Martins in 2005. She works in various medium including digital, collage, pencil, pen, ink, watercolour and screen print with drawing at the core of her practice. Her works draw from various stylistic sources (ranging from Botticelli to comics) mixing symbols and cultural references in a playful and sometimes irreverent way. Since 2010, the main focus of her work has been to explore the relation that can occur between a group and an individual; whether the group is protective or, on the contrary, menacing and harmful, Lebourgeois tells stories via precise scenarios that explore the realm of power relations whilst questioning Illustrative and Fine Art traditions. She has collaborated with major newspapers including The New Yorker, the Guardian, L'Obs and Le Monde, and her work is shown internationally.
