Lives and works in Achères-la-Forêt, France
A graduate of the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, Ducat-May studied sculpture in the atelier of the painter Jean-Michel Alberola, and was deeply influenced not only by his practice but also by the antiquities and archaeology collections held at the nearby Louvre, which opened up to her a world of Roman and Greek ceramics, as well as ancient ex-voto artworks, in which painting and sculpture coalesce into new languages and aesthetic results.
Recent group shows include Amies, Muses, Artistes, Tajan Gallery, Paris (2020); Seuls Ensemble, H Gallery, Paris (2016); Le noir & blanc en couleurs, Lizières (2015).
Ducat-May has been recently awarded the Prix de Sculpture, Fondation Joseph Epstein, ENSBA (2020); Bourse Diamond, ENSBA (2019); Prix d’encouragement de sculpture, Académie des Beaux-Arts (2015).
