A creator of situations, Ève Chabanon practices performance, writing, and object-making. She works with local communities and groups of marginalized people to whom she gives a voice through the creation of spaces for questioning and debate. These discussions take place around an object or a place and are documented by filmed accounts. Ève Chabanon's participatory and engaged productions stage “identity as a social construct” and are “attempts to think of common narratives in contexts of dispossession, of possible loss”, to use the artist's own words.
Born in 1989 in Poissy (France), Ève Chabanon lives and works in London.
