Carole Mousset is a French painter based in Brussels. She studied at the Beaux-Arts in Nantes and at the Royal Academy in Brussels, and works as an artist-in-residence at Triphasé.

These works explore the sea as an inhabited and mysterious ecosystem populated by mythological beings, unfamiliar forms, and enchanting yet unsettling landscapes. The artists move between poetry and terror, reflecting humanity’s fascination with the unknown and with the ocean as one of the last partially unexplored territories. The underwater world becomes a metaphor for the hidden depths of the human psyche, where attraction, fear, imagination, and uncertainty coexist.
