On November 21–22, 2025, I participated in the Artémis project, an interdisciplinary initiative combining dance and philosophy. This contemporary interpretation of the myths surrounding the ancient goddess sought to anchor the narrative within a current feminist perspective. The project was directed by Marguerite Ingenito and received support from Avant Première.

Project Overview
Artémis is a contemporary dance work that offers a form of philosophical introspection. At the intersection of questions surrounding divine justice and the notion of the hunt, the choreography gains depth by bringing into dialogue themes that initially appear distinct. Concepts such as peace, waiting, hope, nature, and confrontation intertwine throughout the performance. The work emerges as sensitive, moving, and intriguing: “Let us bring Artémis to life through the light of thought and through danced movement.”
