about
Thomas Mopin Viers (FR,1995) is an artist and designer.
He graduated of the Rietveld Academie in 2020 after training at the École nationale supérieure d'architecture de Paris Belleville, Thomas Mopin Viers is developing a practice of territorial investigation centred on the use and transformation of terrestrial resources.
This research is based on a spatial interpretation (from installation to object) that questions human and environmental relationships to resources and materials. From their extraction to their transformation, he studies their potential functional and fictional uses.
He has received grants from Enowe-Artagon, Format Z33 and the Institut français in Rome. From the studio he co-founded, Niveau Zéro Atelier , he has exhibited his work at the Stedelijk museum, the Pavillon de l'Arsenal, HetHem Amsterdam and Lafayette Anticipations.
