Born in Liège (Belgium) in 1994
Pierre Coric’s body of work weaves together different technical and technological practices. Navigation, computer programming, printmaking and the making of textile objects are the components of ephemeral installations and performances which, by revealing an offbeat kind of normal, aim at making us rethink our perceptions of the world. In the last years, Pierre has been working locally and abroad on various collective and solo projects.
Recent exhibitions include The Ways We Are It, produced during a residency at Residency Unlimited in New York City (2023); As If It Was Making the Grass Happy to Grow, produced at le 18 in Marrakesh (2023); Capture #2 at le Pavillon in Namur (2023); Biennale des imaginaires numériques at Fondation Vasarely in Aix-en-Provence (2022); As We Wrap It Around Those Woollen Wings at Lichtekooi in Antwerp (2022); Testing Ground at IMAL in Brussels (2022) and Ça aurait la longueur d’un trait bleu at Mois Multi in Quebec. (2022)
Pierre is currently based between Oostende, a coastal city in Belgium where he lives and works aboard a small sailboat, and New York where he shares a studio with his partner.
