Born in Switzerland, Groux moved to the United States in 1996 where she became immersed in the New York art scene. Influenced by artistic practices and design motifs found in Pre-Colombian, Mesopotamian, Renaissance,
Art Nouveau, Modernism, and Outsider’s arts, Groux’s ceramic works are tactile, curvilinear ab- stract sculptures accentuated by organic shapes and patterns. Groux’s work has been featured in group and solo exhibitions in New York, Switzer- land, and Philadelphia, and are part of collections in Pennsylvania, New York, California, Switzer- land, Canada, and Mexico. She was awarded Best in Show for Sculpture 2021 at the Ellarslie Museum in Trenton, NJ, juried by Dr. William R. Valerio, Director of the Woodmere Museum of Philadelphia, PA.
