“De femme à FEMMES” (De mujer a MUJERES /Capital WOMEN) is an ongoing creation, collectively created and performed by groups of local women across different countries and urban spaces, at the crossroads between poetical and political.

This visual performance stages images of SISTERHOOD, and takes place in iconic public spaces of a city. The symbols they carry are those of women’s solidarity, empowerment, reflecting a feminine sensibility, and made from the uniqueness of each woman composing the ensemble.

The creation process preceding the public performance creates a very solid group that generates great emotion through an intimate sharing that reflects something universal in women.

The performance is a context-specific creation : the performances all carry the same core messages, they vary as they are recreated by each group of women, based on the feelings expressed and the reality lived by women in the concerned country. 

This work is about : 

MAKING SISTERHOOD VISIBLE

DISTILLING POETRY/ SENSIBILITY IN URBAN SPACE, IN SOCIETY

MAKING SPACE FOR INTIMACY IN THE HEART OF THE CITY

SHARING OUR FEELINGS AND EXPERIENCES AS WOMEN

ENABLING WOMEN TO UNITE THROUGH ART

The project is to stage women’s intimate feelings, in very simple performances, that create strong and delicate images at the same time… Not as a protest, but in beauty, sensibility and poetry.
These images come to question society’s view of women. In the public space.
