How To Leave The World

2025 · Painting · 80 x 165 cm

€4,000

How does one leave a world that keeps writing itself on the body? Boubaker holds the question open: a figure caught between presence and dissolution, painted in the flat, saturated fields of colour that define her practice. The title takes up an inscription that recurs across her canvases, 'Comment sortir du monde', less a slogan than a fragment lifted from the real.

No Name Is Great

2025 · Painting · 100 x 185 cm

€6,000

What remains when the individual story dissolves? In Boubaker's iconography the skull is never a classical vanitas: it is what persists once the name has gone, a vestige rather than a symbol, rendered with the economy of gesture that carries her seated, fragmented figures, caught in flat fields of deep blue and vivid orange.

Chromatic Dream

2024 · Painting · 80 x 150 cm

€3,800

Colour as a territory of its own: deep blues and vivid oranges build a dream-space where Boubaker's hybrid silhouettes drift between presence and memory. A canvas about inhabiting a place without being entirely there, the in-between condition at the heart of her practice, between a Tunisia left behind and a France inhabited.

Drama

2024 · Painting · 95 x 155 cm

€4,200

Three figures sit before a range of blue mountains, two with the head of the black swan, one in a ruff and a green coat, hands joined. Nothing happens, and that is the drama: a tribunal, a family portrait or a waiting room, held in the flat colour and drawn contour of Boubaker's practice. The black swan, her recurring messenger of the unforeseeable, here takes a seat.

Honor

2024 · Painting · 85 x 100 cm

€2,800

A dignitary in a ruff and a striped coat, arms folded, with a skull for a face: the pose of official portraiture, emptied of its sitter. Honor is the first half of a pair with Infamy, same figure, same stance, the ground turned from turquoise to orange. Boubaker paints what remains of authority once the name has gone, in the flat colour and drawn contour that carry her hybrid figures.

Infamy

2024 · Painting · 85 x 100 cm

€2,800

The companion to Honor: the same ruffed figure, arms crossed, but the ground has gone orange and the skull leans, as if listening. Two words for one posture, and the title alone decides which side of the story the portrait falls on. Boubaker's skull is never a classical vanitas; it is the face left to a figure once reputation has done its work.

A deep dive into patriarchy

2024 · Painting · 100 x 150 cm

€4,200

A seated nude with the head of a black swan holds the centre of the canvas, against a pale blue sky. Facing her, a figure with an animal's muzzle stands wrapped in pink and blue drapery, and a grey form pushes in from the right edge, half arm and half smoke, ending in a beak. Lemons and a few orange flowers hold the lower edge. Boubaker's most direct canvas, where the scene does the work the title announces, and the swan is the one who has to sit through it.
