Le projet se nomme : Le Tribunal des phrases performatives. Cette installation est constituée d’une installation visuelle apte à rendre la sensation d’« être regardées », [….] L’intention de cette performance est évidemment celle de représenter l’influence plus ou moins violente et invasive des phrases, des commentaires des expressions et des regards qui forment, deviennent, changent, le sens et la perception du genre dans le quotidien de tout le monde. La présence des autres, le regard des autres modifient notre aperçu, celui de nous même à partir de la plus petite enfance et déterminent activement notre façon d’être, en public ou en privé. Notre image de soi, nos besoins, nos envies et nos capacités d’exprimer l’invitation à répéter certaines phrases, lieux communs, insultes ou compliments standards, sont une façon de démasquer cette action des autres sur nous, et l’officialisation « paradoxale » par le biais du « tribunal » et offre l’occasion de démanteler la mécanique et la force de cette action. La répétition scandée de certaines phrases […] nous permet une réappropriation claire de cette sorte d’espace virtuel qui est : le jugement, […] à l’intérieur duquel on est en relation et auquel on est obligé , en quelque sorte, de construire l’image de nous et de notre genre. Performer des phrases qui nous décrivent signifie : agir sur la réalité avec autant de force que puisse le faire l’ « autre ».
The project is called: The Tribunal of Performing Sentences. This installation consists of a visual installation capable of rendering the feeling of “being looked at”, [….] The intention of this performance is obviously to represent the more or less violent and invasive influence of sentences, comments and expressions that form, become and change the meaning and perception of gender in the everyday life of everyone. The presence of others, the gaze of others modify our perception of ourselves from the very early childhood and actively determine our way of being, in public or in private. Our self-image, our needs, our desires and our capacities to express the invitation to repeat certain sentences, commonplaces, insults or standard compliments, are a way to unmask this action of others on us, and the officialization “paradoxical ” through this “ court ” offers the opportunity to dismantle the mechanics and force of this action. The punctuated repetition of certain sentences […] allows us a clear reappropriation of this sort of virtual space which is: judgment, within which […] we are in relation and starting from which we are obliged, somehow, to build the image of us and our gender. Performing sentences that describe ourselves means: acting on reality with as much force as the “other” can do.
