Early life and education

[edit]

Chloé Wary was born in 1995, and grew up in Chilly-Mazarin.[1] She studied illustration at the Lycée technologique d'Arts appliqués Auguste Renoir, in Paris.[2] She developed a graduation project on women's rights in Saudi Arabia, including the right to drive a vehicle,[1] which was published by Steinkis Groupe in 2017 under the title Conduite interdite (Prohibited Conduct).[3] Wary declared having had the idea for this work by reading a book of testimonies, Révolution sous le voile (Revolution under the veil), by Clarence Rodriguez [fr].[4]

Chloe Wary (2020 Angoulême International Comics Festival)

In 2018, Wary was an artist-in-residence at Mazé-Milon and prepared a comic strip on Women's association football there;[5] she herself became a gamer to better immerse herself in the subject.[4][6] The work narrates the struggle of a female team for its survival.[7][8] At the 2020 Angoulême International Comics Festival, the album won the Audience award.[9]

Following an order from Insula Orchestra [fr] to the Steinkis publishing house, Wary illustrated a leaflet on the composer Louise Farrenc (1804-1875). This first encounter with classical music led to the production of her third album, Beethov sur Seine.[10]
