ARTIST STATEMENT

As an interdisciplinary artist, I explore the fertile tension of the « between ». This reveals itself between physical states, between traditions, between beings, between artistic disciplines, and between different relationships to time. I prioritize co-creations with artists of diverse practices, each project being an opportunity to elaborate upon common interdisciplinary references with which we dialogue. Settling into this « between » space requires mutual listening and a surrender to instability which then allows a new balance to be found, together.
 
My relationship with movement is rooted in flamenco, an ardent and rigorously codified art form where dance and music are intimately connected. With its constant play between building tension and explosive release, flamenco incites a state of desire in me, an attraction, an intervallic tension that continually renews itself in an erotic rapport with life. Unlike a hardness that would hinder movement, flamenco teaches me to perceive tension as a constant adaptation moving between contraction and expansion. My choreographic works develop from this very tension, at times uncomfortable, between my respect towards the flamenco tradition and the desire to create outside of the references imposed by this tradition.

The macroscopic and microscopic phenomena that unconsciously influence our lives above and beyond our daily observations, and the need to explore other relationships to time, are at the heart of the subjects that intrigue me. Such as the movement of the tides in Èbe, the activity of bryophytes in Bruissement de mousses, time and the inherent loss of all gestation in Ce qui émerge après (4kg). The thrill of discovering the poignant fragility of things strongly resonates in my creative process revealing, often in spite of me, a sense of melancholy.
