Audrey Couppé de Kermadec are a non-binary artist, poet and performer from Guadeloupe and Martinique.
Through a transdisciplinary practice, they are interested in coloniality, the magico-religious practices of the West Indies and the links between blackness, the sacred, queerness and collective resistance. Their eco-poetic approach turns stagnant nature and clandestine landscapes into salvation cocoons, where rest and inertia become utopian tools of regeneration for the marginalised. Co-founder of the SMAC collective (Santé mentale dans l'art contemporain), their work explores alternative forms of rebellion and care.
