Everything holds a story. Everything is waiting for the story teller.
A rock, a face, a feather, a smell, a constellation, a pool of piss… Words, sounds, images have a super power that open doors to hidden worlds. The quality of a mouvement, the meaning of a form, the intent of a phrase… they hold meanings that convey these stories.
My name is Gwenn, a non binary french artist based in Marseille. A few years ago my world flipped upside down as I left heteronormativity and embraced deconstructing norms to become the creative non conforming person I was meant to be. I am now passionate about honing humane inclusive values, expressing them in what I do and questioning the world around me. Because isn’t that what artists do? Ask questions?
