Manon De Pauw

My artistic research takes on different forms, such as video art, installation, performance, photography, drawing, and writing. My work springs from a desire to link formalism and performative process, as well as to create complex and poetic visual situations out of a handful of elements. In them, the body is alternately manipulating and manipulated, object and instrument, inert and active, motor and motif. Whatever the medium used, each gesture is a way to articulate thought, to take position physically and poetically with respect to a wide spectrum of concerns.
