Elie Autin (Lausanne)
She proliferates into an infinite number of chimeras. A queer and racialised artist, she's shaking up the dance and performance scenes. At the end of her training in contemporary dance at the Manufacture in Lausanne, with Présage she created the first work by the company Les Bacchantes. Working together contributes to the development of critical art, finding an echo in all those who aspire to live together.
In residence at the studio from 16 to 20 December 2024 as part of the Life Long Burning project, funded by the European Union.

— Meeting with Elie Autin and her team about the creative process
Revolted by white society's view of black bodies, Elie Autin revives the striking force of the Furies by combining it with the magnetic power of the Bacchae. From being perched on the heights, a creature is forced to leave its peaceful surroundings. Its cries, laughter and songs act as an outlet for the violence it is subject to. And yet, through this protean dance, the body is transformed. From the crossing of stereotypes to the expression of fury: a chimera is born.
