Noémie Doge, laureate of the Jacqueline Oyex Award
The Jacqueline Oyex Foundation was created in 2007. As the owner of most of the artist’s paintings, drawings, engravings and plaques, as well as documents relating to the artist, the Foundation’s aim is to preserve, disseminate and promote the work of Jacqueline Oyex. Each year, it awards the Distinction Jacqueline Oyex, intended to support an artist by acquiring a work or a group of works donated to a museum. The Musée Jenisch Vevey is delighted to announce that it will be enriching its collections with two major drawings by Noémie Doge thanks to this distinction.
2024 laureate: Noémie Doge
Noémie Doge lives and works in La Chaux-de-Fonds. Trained at the HEAD in Geneva, as well as in Amsterdam and London, she worked for several years in the field of applied arts, in particular jewellery, before beginning a body of work that combines drawing and sculpture to describe a mental universe as dreamlike as it is deeply rooted in the history of painting, retaining a scrupulous taste for meticulousness.
