Biography

Jérôme Chazeix builds complex installations that create hybrid parallel worlds. He combines and superimposes different media to create settings in which the public is totally immersed and actors, through choreographed or spontaneous performances, take possession of the device. These works of art are meant to be “total” in the sense that performers and audiences both become characters in parallel worlds finding a match in the objects around them. The public is transported, enveloped, in a search for meaning, midway between new age desire and social reality.
