Ekaterina Vasilyeva (Moscow, 1983)
Ekaterina Vasilyeva (1983, Moscou, vit et travaille à Paris) conçoit des performances et interventions polymorphes. Saisissant toujours le genius loci d’où elle intervient, elle trace des déplacements autant physiques que symboliques dans des espaces chargés en signification politique comme les rues de Moscou (Axe de révolution, 2014), celles de Paris (Augenmusik, 2016), l’église Sainte Eustache (Voix humaine, 2015) ou encore l'ancienne base miliaire de l’OTAN en Norvège (Nothing will grow togather, 2015).
