In 2024, Jérémie Cosimi took part in the group exhibition À fleur de paume — A Look at Miniature in Contemporary Art at Dilecta Gallery, curated by Thomas Fort, which explored the poetic power of small-scale formats.
Jérémie Cosimi, Sous la lune de la calanque, 2023
From large-scale works to miniatures, Jérémie Cosimi delineates a world that is at once strange and familiar. He maintains a direct intimacy with the subjects he depicts, while relocating them to liminal and often anachronistic spaces. Tight framing, as well as the sparseness of the settings, blur our sense of temporality.

In March 2026, his work will be presented at the MUCEM as part of the group exhibition Bonnes Mères, curated by Caroline Chenu and Anne-Cécile Mailfert.
Jérémie Cosimi, born in 1987 in Cavaillon, is a French painter based in Marseille. His work offers a sensitive reinterpretation of the history of painting: portraits, still lifes, and suspended scenes unfold within dense compositions where chiaroscuro sculpts the material and suggests silent narratives. His multi-layered approach, combining photography, staging, and painting, lends his works an almost theatrical dimension, in which bodies and objects appear as vestiges of a present that is at once familiar and unsettling.
