I am a multimedia artist exploring the integration and interaction of dance and moving image through performance, screen, installation and online work. I am also photographer, documenter and director. I am currently an Australia Council for the Arts Fellow

Born in Brussels, I trained in dance, theatre & music (69-76), completed a Masters in Visual Arts at La Cambre, Brussels (79-84), and moved to Australia in 1996. Co-artistic director of Igneous http://www.igneous.org.au, I created the multimedia projections for, and directed, most of its productions. I give lectures and workshops in Australia & Europe integrating video with performing arts & fostering multimedia artistic collaboration.

With a focus on visual communication, I extend my interests across disciplines and areas of knowledge, feeding a strong curiosity about everything. Central subjects to my work are identity (collective and individual), memory and uses of technology. Art projects evidence process as art and are practical reflections on fictional biography, social utopias, ways of knowing and women's achievements. Outcomes take form of texts (books), photographs, installations and live audiovisual performances. Blogging is used as reflective tool on processes and results.


I live and work in Berlin. I studied Comparative Literature in Berlin and English language and Creative Writing in the UK. 1996 I started to work with Internationale Stadt Berlin, one of the first net culture projects in Germany. Since then I worked in different art and cultural projects including Old Boys Network and the Media Arts Lab at Künstlerhaus Bethanien. I am a member of mikro e.V.
