    Arbonauts create site-based performance inspired by unusual spaces, and makes provocative work
    for a curious and adventurous audience – weaving a path between dance, visual theatre, installation
    and opera.

     

    "Dominique performed a central role in Biped’s Monitor – Arbonauts’ acclaimed site-specific performance at dusk in Nunhead Cemetery. Dominique’s acute characterisation and eagerness to push to the limits - coupled with a total commitmitment to the physical language of the production made her an essential energetic influence of our production. Her focus and stamina was evident throughout, and her ability to transport an audience’s experience through her embodiment of gesture, her intensity of gaze and raw energy is inspirational."

    'And then we left, with no words being professed to acknowledge our ending.
    A lot had happened between us.
    My I and your I, these two first persons, coexisted through times and spaces that left

    marks in both of us.
    Our contract was finished and so had to be our feelings.
    The nothingness of our situation is a lamentable loss of what we cannot understand yet.
    It is like pinning down a butterfly that isn’t really there.'

    "That Which Grows" by choreographer Lydia Fraser-Ward
    Performed at platform "Women of Mass Destruction II", Rich Mix Theater, July 1014, London

     

    Sometimes we do things we shouldn’t. And sometimes, we can’t reveal what we’ve seen, or done, to anyone else. What happens when we bury that secret deep down, under the ground? A symbolic reflection of how nature responds to the poison of secrets and lies buried under the earth, and how attempting to preserve what we hold most dear can actually destroy the world around us.

  • About

    Born in Switzerland, I moved to London in 2011, following my passion for dance & physical theater. After a diploma at LABAN Dance School, I got an intensive training at LISPA - London International School of Performing Arts.
     
    I have been so far very lucky to take part in several exciting projects in London, performing especially at Tate Modern with international artist Tino Sehgal, Rich Mix Theater & Bonnie Bird Theater, Dance Festival Resolution!, Robin Howard Theater, at London Fashion Week (Tank, Tate Modern), Espacio Gallery, with Arbonauts Co, LCP Dance Theater Co, Theo Adams Co, and with independent choreographers such as Lydia Fraser-Ward, Jemma Bicknell and Konstantina Skalionta. In Switzerland with Nicole Seiler Co, Acmosercie Co and performance maker Massimo Furlan.
     
    Finally, my background as a psychologist is directly linked to the interest of developing further works through dance and drawing, focusing on presence and energy as a base for performative action.
     
     

    Drawing

    I often describe myself as 'a dancer with a passion for drawing'. Indeed they became necessary to each other as my artistic practice often ties them together. Drawing is a movement that follows my inner impulses as the charcoal dances in the space.
     
    Among the several and rich teachings I received at LISPA (London International School of Performing Arts), Aurelian Koch and Thomas Prattki, founder of LISPA, made me discover the joy of drawing by following instinctive and spontaneous impulses.

  • Dance & Drawing

    I like to draw between midnight and 4 am, drawing has become a need, trying to catch the essence of what is surrounding us...
     
    Through dance and drawing I'm looking for animalistic figures by developing a connection with the instinct of movement. The unconscious, the natural resources of the body and the exploration of a wide range of inner states are the main inspirational vibes that I'm following in this research & exploration.
