Works by Angélique Aubrit and Ludovic Beillard

At the crossroads of sculpture, installation, video, performance and drawing, artist duo Angélique Aubrit and Ludovic Beillard build environments inhabited by figures in which burlesque narratives and absurd theater unite.

With wearable costumes of self-sewn clothes and wooden helmets that imitate faces, anthropomorphic characters set off as the protagonists of performances. Representing minorities marginalized by society, these characters often find themselves stuck in impossible communication, narratives that emulate the human condition, reflecting the brutal and nebulous aspects of our present day.

For Aubrit and Beillard, however, it is less about presenting a pessimistic view of the world than it is about establishing a state of civilization, highlighting its relations of domination and order, and (re)writing a new form of collective venting.
