Grant – “Art critic/exhibition curator” College

Born in 1991 in Bordeaux, France

Independent researcher and curator, committed to the convergence of ecological, feminist, decolonial and queer battles. After South Korea, he undertooks research in philosophy of art at Bordeaux Montaigne University. Sensitive to the conditions that make ‘art’, he strives to experiment and transmit within a critical and collective vision in order to bring relation to the forefront. For 10 years, he co-directed Espace 29 (33) an alternative art space offering studios to artists from the region, and developed an aesthetic platform between activist circles, universities and cultural institutions. Traveling during art residencies (Martinique, Taiwan, Vietnam), it was in La Réunion in 2023 that he initiated the collective « Paroles, encore des paroles » to support the liberation of women’s voices against sexual violence. A fluid creature, descendant of the Vietnam/Morocco decolonizations and rooted in the Basque country.
