Amélie Giacomini, born in 1988, Lyon (France)
Laura Sellies, born in 1989, Grenoble (France)
Live and work in Paris (France)
Invited by the artistic direction of Rendez-vous
Amélie Giacomini and Laura Sellies's “performance-sculptures”, which are often realized in unreal seeming wildernesses, develop as installations, sound environments, and videos, in which the performers’ bodies assert their presence through sculptural poses or choreographed moves. Thus, space and body seem to evolve as one, evoking, by turns, myths and contemporary architectural references.
