Nathalie Du Pasquier was born in Bordeaux, France in 1957. She travelled in Africa in her late teens and, on returning to France, started to explore the visual culture there and to make images. She settled in Italy in 1978 and her focus shifted toward design. In Milan a group gathered around the architect Ettore Sottsass in 1981, Nathalie was among them, and the seminal design team Memphis was born. After the group dissolved in 1987, Nathalie began to paint again and exhibit her work.
