Sebastien Courty was born and raised in Limoges, central France. At five years old his uncle taught him to combine his vivid imagination with whatever he could find. By seventeen, he moved to Paris to attend the École National Supérieure des Beaux-Arts where he found his artistic freedom. From 2011 he shifted into fashion and textile but brought his first love along for the journey -painting. This would lead him to renowned fashion institutes in New York and Paris; and later on to his solo exhibitions - White Print and Non-Washable. 

塞巴斯蒂安·科缇  出生在法国中部城市利摩日。5岁时, 在叔叔的启发下，开始用任何可以找到的材料来表达丰富的想象。17岁独自搬到巴黎，在著名的勒芒高等美术学院学习绘画与艺术史。2011年，塞巴斯蒂安将事业发展转向了时尚面料材质纹理设计，先后在巴黎和纽约的知名时装学院学习，并举办了 “白色印染” 和 “非水洗” 两次个展。 

Textile allows him to work on a surface like a canvas but for great practical use of the work - so rather then just hang it up on a wall, he wants to see his creations in as many forms textile allows itself to be transformed into. Courty believes it is currently important for an artist to be able to propose their work on different surfaces and for different aesthetics. 

时尚设计让塞巴斯蒂安的绘画才能得以舒展，在柔软的布料上创作似乎更加得心应手。他的作品不仅是二维画作，更是光线和纹理、人与空间的对话。他认为这个时代的艺术家应该使用不同的媒介创作，打破疆界，让欣赏者近距离地享受艺术作品。

At his NON-WASHABLE show in New York, Courty painted on three-dimension surfaces and screen printed on silk organza and other luxurious fabrics. The result was an artistic mirage, layers of images that blend together leaving one intrigued by the depth of the work's character and the artist's research. 

在纽约的“非水洗”个展上，塞巴斯蒂安展示了海市蜃楼般梦幻的作品。他先用丝网印刷在精致布料上作画，再用燃烧和锈化的处理手法使布料呈现雕塑般的张力。从轻柔到粗粝的质感共存于一件作品之上。 

For the third solo exhibition he brings a deeper understanding of art and textile to his "Unknown Empire" show at Beijing AOTO STUDIO from April 2nd to 29th, 2016. Courty has a unique ability to translate the ideas of ancient civilizations in addition to images of current living into ambidextrous fabric. Depending on the mood, the fabric can embellish a wall or can complete a space.   

2016年4月在北京凹凸空间举办的“未知的王朝”个展将体现塞巴斯蒂安对艺术和艺术载体的重新思考。他从古代文明以及原始部落符号中找到灵感，用时而松弛时而凌厉的泼墨式笔触营造一种神秘紧张的氛围。他的作品既可以像油画一样挂在墙上，又可以又来改造室内空间，完全依照欣赏者当下的心情。 

"I wish you could find an absolute feeling of faith and devotion", he says. “See the reflection of nature in wrinkled silk. Feel the trace of time in rusted, burnt surfaces that resembles nothing you've seen before.”

塞巴斯蒂安说：“我希望能让人感觉到一种信念，相信先人做出的牺牲，相信天上的祖先在保佑我们。我希望你能从丝绸的皱褶中看到大自然的倒影，能从焚烧过的锈迹中触摸到时间。我希望你能认出它们那让人无法辨认的样子。”
