Ryder LeVieux’s work centers on the preservation of familial memories through architectural themes. She views home as a dual concept: a physical and emotional refuge as well as a space ingrained with tradition, culture, and memory. Inspired by her architect parents, LeVieux began exploring this theme through work enriched with cultural elements and patterns specific to aspects of her life. 

LeVieux’s practice evolved into works, born from the idea of using floor plans to visualize, trace, and map memories from room to room. This play between memory and architecture is explored through concrete, textiles, painting, and ceramic. Reproducing and fragmentation are integral to her process, creating histories for the materials themselves during their making; broken fragments are reincorporated into new works. Her work investigates how architecture can be a tool with which to collect memory and what traces of life we leave upon our homes. 

Ryder LeVieux was born in San Francisco, California in 2001. LeVieux received a BFA in Fine Arts from Paris College of Art in 2024 and a Certificate in Communication Design in 2025. She currently lives and works in Paris and is a resident artist at Non Étoile.
