Cynthia Walsh was born in Paris in 1985. After one year of Erasmus at EPFL in Lausanne, in 2011 she obtained her state architect diploma from Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture Paris-Est and then, her HMO from Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Versailles. After spending four years in an architectural firm, she devoted herself entirely to drawing. She travels the territory of the Parisian suburbs by bicycle and is interested in current changing landscapes. She represents the urban mutations of our time, her drawings reveal the soon to be buried history and the dawn of a new narrative. Today she teaches drawing in various Parisian schools including Nouvelle Académie des Beaux Arts de Paris, Prép’Art, Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Paris La Villette and Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées. This year, she is a finalist for the 2021 David Weill Prize. She regularly exhibits at the Six Elzévir in the center of the Marais in Paris, with a group of artists working around the topic of landscape. The next one will take place next June 2021.
