bio:

I am a performance and media artist, director, and independent researcher. In 2023, I founded Angels’ Front, a performance company that draws on principles from game design, social psychology, and speculative methodologies.

Through this project, I develop a practice of immersive simulation specializing in psychological operations and exploring themes ranging from cognitive autonomy to propaganda tools in the context of hybrid warfare. I approach performance not only as a means of artistic creation, but also as a research tool and a speculative space.

I lead Angels’ Front, managing its structure and guiding its artistic and conceptual development. My work is supported by a multidisciplinary team of artists, actresses, dancers, a game designer, and a psychologist. The company also serves as a resource space for its members, who can rely on its network, resources, and infrastructure to develop their own projects. I am the co-founder of the performance research group TU_W? (2021) and founder of the performance company Angels’ Front (2023). I teach performance in relation to new technologies at ENSAD-PSL Paris. I am also a member of Lumbung Radio, a collaborative platform founded during Documenta 15, and of the “para-educational research” seminar at HFBK Hamburg.

I am recipient of the FoRTE grant (2023), and have been an artistin- residence at La Villette (Artist Initiatives) and at the Fondation Pernod Ricard (Paris Performance). My work has been presented in France and abroad at venues such as Lafayette Anticipations (FR), the Lyon Biennale (FR), La Villette (FR), Ars Electronica (AT), Else (FI), Manifesta 13 in Marseille (FR), LU, Scène Nationale during the Trajectoires Festival (2022), FRAC Pays de la Loire (FR), and the FRAC Centre Biennale (FR).
