An avid reader of poetry and philosophy Colombet began as a writer and wrote two essays in Les Temps Modernes “Les Femmes s’entêtent" [1] Involved in the Feminist movement in Paris, she met Simone de Beauvoir in 1974 and co-founded with her, and Anne Zelensky, Annie Sugier and Annie Cohen “La Ligue du Droit des Femmes”.

[2] Vicky Colombet started a newspaper “Les Nouvelles Féministes” (1974 to 1977) with Simone de Beauvoir as the editor-in-chief.

In many of her paintings and drawings, as well as in her major architectural work the sandblasted curved glass wall of Villa Nurbs,[4] several elements (air, water, earth) merge to manifest the dynamic flux of the universe.

Colombet never stopped drawing, as a vital exercise of hand and mind and as a record-like notes for the fiction she would unfold on canvas.

Each of Colombet's paintings is the result of a long process that starts with the choice of the linen she handpicks in Spain or France.

From 2005 to 2012, she collaborated with the Spanish architect Enric Ruiz-Geli [es] to create a monumental glass work (150x 12 feet) inside the Villa Nurbs.
