Born in the district of Montauban, France, Fette has brought along with her a unique perspective to how we experience art in the confines of a gallery space. An approach that surely differs from someone that comes from a larger metropolitan, like Paris or Lyon. Fette’s Gallery has succeeded in giving a level of intimacy by conceptualizing the use of ones dwelling in the idea of combining it with a gallery space. Originally conceived in Los Angeles’s Culver City area, Fette’s Gallery has then moved to Berlin, Germany, a change that will, with no doubt, be useful for an interesting note of adaptation not only for the gallery but for Fette herself. Let’s discover what Fette has to say about her time living in Los Angeles and how, at her eyes, exhibiting art still has room for creative growth.
You once pointed out that you grew up living in an elementary school. Do you feel that unique experience contributed into having your gallery in your home?
Ahah. That would be quite cynical I suppose. I don’t think this experience directly contributed in opening a first gallery inside a domestic space. I’d rather say that it might have come from my parents fostering an environment encouraging curiosity and differences in one’s way of living.
