"A search between two bodies that, through a series of failures, questions the notion of encounter.
And you, what am I? And me, what are you?
3 + 1 tableaux, 4 attempts at encounter, like a series of experiments in the laboratory that is the research space, a series of failures in search of a stable state, the study of the body through the body, by putting it in tension, in contact, in confrontation, by putting it in play and in play, by making it hurt and making it laugh, by linking it together and making it fall apart. Total fusion appears to us as a risk. To avoid it, we have to calibrate the interstice of the encounter, measure the breathing of the sensitive. But how can we measure something that cannot be measured?"

"Fontaine is a short-lived sculpture. Fontaine was born of a marvellous idea: to piss on myself upside down."

Respire, published by Verdier, 2023
30 mins
This book is about today, about our asphyxiation and our great need for air. Because a fairly unbreathable atmosphere is becoming our ordinary environment. And we're dreaming more than ever of breathing: detoxifying the ground, the skies, our relationships, our daily lives, breathing in, breathing out. Perhaps, in fact, we're only talking about breathing, about making things breathable or making them so. All you have to do is say the word "Respire", and the outside world comes rushing in, drawn in, sucked in, hoping for the call of language.
