 Interview with Hervé Perdriolle (excerpt)
"....De fait dès que l'on ne se conforme pas, alors, "naturellement " on invente sa propre voix et on doit se reposer  toutes les questions : comment vivre ? où vivre ? dans quel espace ? comment habiter ? comment construire ? que construire ?  comment manger ? quoi manger? comment se soigner ? L'art est ma méthode d'investigation : NG pose publiquement mes questions fondamentales en multipliant les formes de récits possibles --- d'où peut-être ma  fascination pour les annees 70 où toutes ces questions sont posées collectivement. En tant que femme et artiste je me repose ces questions de manière très personnelle, à mon rythme, sans dogme, et avec, donc, une certaine liberté !...."

YOUR HOUSE IS MY HOME - video - (excerpt)


"...Le travail de NG semble faire écho à Michel Leiris qui dans « La règle du jeu » s’interrogeait sur le fait de savoir si un changement de costume ou d’habit pouvait modifier le cours de notre existence. Pareillement, NG s’interroge sur l’incidence de l’environnement et de l’habitat sur notre manière d’appréhender le monde et plus largement sur notre manière d’être au monde...."

Waiting For The Future (excerpt)



"WAITING FOR THE FUTURE" a sound piece between dream, scientific discours, and anticipation----


http://lunettesrouges.blog.lemonde.fr/ (article oct 18 )

"-----------Comment passer de l’utopie, le non-lieu, à l’uchronie, le non-temps ? NG, artiste nomade qui occupe et s’approprie les lieux les plus divers, en explorant les utopies architecturales affronte ici les uchronies scientifiques. Elle présente ‘Waiting for the Future’, une pièce purement sonore, basée sur des discours scientifiques futuristes, en biologie et en physique nucléaire : “nous décortiquons le soleil, nous fabriquons des étoiles”. Sur un fond de musique onirique, le temps se désagrège : est-ce de la science fiction, ou une réalité actuelle mais inaccessible ?-----" Marc Lenot

ZERO PRESSION - Extrait

28 JUIN

"-----je recois une phrase de sartre sur la responsabilite de vivre ---
exister c'est se projeter vers l'avenir et poser des valeurs
l'homme n'est rien d'autre que son projet

je me baigne tous les jours pour changer d'état
c'est une expèrience physico-mentale
je suis le savant et le cobaye
je mesure les variations de pressions
la pression mentale la pression sociale
l'auto pressurisation
je mesure la depressurisation
je plonge je surnage tout est fluide
je suis un poisson - eveillée reveillée
j'emerge - le monde est lavée
je peux rêver
face a la mer
oui
j'ai le droit de rever "

I LIKE TO FEEL INSECURE -sound dispositive 


.... I LIKE TO FEEL INSECURE is about the pleasure of danger, the pleasure of insecurity. Recorded with David Mickael Clarke , it's a post-punk-noise-manifesto. For 15 minutes we repeat shout murmur :

I LIKE DANGER
I LIKE THE EMPTINESS
I LIKE INSECURITY
I LIKE TO FEEL
INSECURE
WE LIKE DANGER
WE LIKE EMPTINESS...

It's also about the pleasure to shout the pleasure of unbalance, of fear, that is the natural state of the world it's a programm or rather a deprogrammation, a way to relax the pressure...

April 2008: EVERYTHING MUST GO FLUX FACTORY NEW YORK







It's the first chapter of my ROAD MOVIE , a film I'm doing since I 'm moving for two years from town to town.
Flux Factory a warehouse in Queens, in a no man's land of railroad, old factories, supermarket...with an impressive view on Manhattan.


To film is my way to comprehend the people and the space, how we inhabit an architecture how we transform it, play with it, how people and space interact, how the space affect the way of doing and thinking (and vice versa).

Flux Factory will be demolished soon
