Dominique Gilliot

01 to 01 January 2009

Dominique Gilliot is an Astérides Resident in 2009. The archives of Triangle-Astérides do not allow for the determination of the exact dates or the duration of this residency in 2009.

Dominique Gilliot was born in 1975, they live and work in Lille (FR).

“The performative work I have gradually developed over the past five years consists in a staging of myself (sometimes joined by other performers) in performances I conceive as ephemeral bodily investments, cast within a multiple and complex network of micro-territories—interlocked, connected, or merely adjacent. I’m speaking here of a physical territorialisation, which may be purely geographical, but which also manifests ‘abstractly,’ within the semantic field, for example, or through various kinds of slippages from one idea to another—suddenly creating unexpected connections between seemingly unrelated elements. Overlaps occasionally occur, and a contamination between these different spaces emerges, either by capillary action or by arbitrary proximities.” — Dominique Gilliot
