Our body, natural relation with the world
Our body, this natural interface which puts us dynamically, in connection with the world, was in the center of my concerns from the beginning of my practice of artist. Of the demonstration of the body in movement in the stake in movement of the spectator, it 's for a change of paradigm of the economy of the representation that we assist today. This change pulls the migration of an aesthetics from the support / plan to the other one based on spaces of data, virtual and interactive environments (but for all that perceive and lived as realities) where the physical living, real body, the body of flesh, functions, organs and cognition marries a virtual body ( the image--stage)through its interfaced gesture.. This body moves, communicates, and is perceived in a space-time among which the representation and the organization are a major stake in our digital time: the space-time of interactions.
The Evolution of technosciences and computing models which make them applicable, supply to the artist the material of new writings allowing the opening of the traditional systems of representation, widening of the physical envelope (previously perceived as closed volume), the unpredictability, the autonomy and the emergence of unpublished behavior. So the interactive scenographies fit the flesh of our body in so many dynamic and complex environments. They engage new aesthetic forms and symbolism of rich exchanges and elaborated for an increased receiving sensibility, even aggravated.
Painter, actress and scenographer, what livens up me today, is the search for new scenic writings with the new technologies implemented as a means to put it relation the various artistic disciplines. My double training in Arts and in Theater, my experience of the painting, worked there aplats of colors then numerically transformed into three-dimensional picture (where the image became huge projection of a space built as a stage set) incited me to approach the scenic space and to merge my two passions on the borders of the stage and the image. It 's a question for me of giving life to objects arranged inside this space, of making them "actors" become with whom to have a dialogue through sensors of movement put on the body registering the actions, or in the space. In a world henceforth lived and perceived as universe changing, unstable, complex, and with which one we establish relations more and more technological, which other aesthetics of representation to conceive to report perceptive experiences of the body in movement in the scene of the world? I don't set Real and virtual, even if they seem not to belong to the same world .I admit them in relation. I want to cross the borders between the scenic space, created, crossed by the body movements, and the actions, the movement of the actor, the spectator.
Attempt to investigate The... In between.
