Pascal Convert's work focuses on the question of memory and forgetting. He uses a wide range of techniques, from traditional molding, prints, Japanese lacquer and metalwork to computer modelling, image synthesis and digital animation. Physical materials include glass, wax and porcelain.
His projects include Trois Villas (1986–96), a series of drawings of three abandoned villas on the coast near Biarritz and Appartement de l'artiste (1987–90), which explores the interior of his former apartment in Bordeaux. Souches (1995–98) incorporates painted sections of tree trunks from the battlefields of Verdun and Hiroshima. A wax bas-relief Pietà de Kosovo (1999–2000) was commissioned for the 2000 Biennale de Lyon.
Convert's work has been shown at the Musee Picasso, Centre d'arts plastiques contemporains (CAPC) in Bordeaux, Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume, Centre Georges Pompidou, Frac des Pays de la Loire, Nantes. It has been shown at museums in several other countries including the Wakayama Museum of Modern Art (Japan), Iwaki Museum of Modern Art (Japan), Kunstverein (Bonn, Germany), Kouskovo Museum (Moscow) and the Museum of Modern Art (Delhi, India). His work has been exhibited at other galleries and public buildings in France and elsewhere in Europe including Madrid, Karlsruhe, Hamburg and Berlin.
