Performance
Life / Alive / Enliven
The alive as a partner.
It is political.
It is philosophical and it is physical. Karine Blanche develops her universe through different senses. She weaves scent, video, painting and music in her daily practice as in installation or live performance.
This free way of thinking, reading and working arises from her experience and relation to her environment.
Non-human is the motto of Karine Blanche Emmanuelle, the base of her research on the self limitations human being has inflicting to it/him/her self.
Offering to the self a part of unknown.

Score & Poetry
Anatomy of present
Dissection of future
Drawing as an art of divination for Karine Blanche, a way to write the past and the future.
As a documentation of her daily exploration, her drawing and painting practice track the root of words and map their trajectories. The act of writing and the act of drawing melt as if she could redraw the path, transform the present or tell the future.
NOT THE OBJECT OR THE SUBJECT but the relation.
Karine Blanche ritualizes and celebrates collaborative processes between humans and non humans...
She like to give space for the relation to unfold.
She creates in her settings tension between bodies and environment - urban environment, domesticated nature or primary rainforest and gives back a responsible posture to the observer.

Karine Blanche defines herself as a poet a poet anchored in liveness. Sound choreographer, performance artist she engages herself with all senses trying to trace lines of empowerment and reflect on gaps between nature and culture(s).
Sound
Subtle as a body
The medium of sound through the collaborative "detournement" of objects, organic or manufactured, functional or inert as a search for new approaches of gestures and resonances.
My compositions embody a chorus of entities, human and non-human, beings from the past or the future, a tale from other times, intimate, imaginary and sometimes fictional interspecies language, calling for a gathering.
