Born in 1985 in Montpellier (France). Florænt Audoye lives and works in Paris (France).
It is through humour that Florænt Audoye challenges the institutional and normative frameworks that govern bodies and behaviours. The world of work and its administrative machinery, but also the question of gender are privileged subjects to explore the forms of alienation exercised on individuals. If her practice is mainly performance, Florænt Audoye also uses drawing or video. Also invested in choreographic projects, the artist evolves between the visual arts and the performing arts.
“His almost minimalist performances have the merit of the right dose: a posture, a rhythm, possibly an accessory… nothing else. Seeing them gives way to a refined beauty, between evidence and pleasure. His face is the primary setting around which he composes a universe whose aesthetic dimension is never neglected. An approach that cleverly appropriates the traditional codes of performance for an ultra-contemporary result.”
