Elie + Alizée Quinche

Alizée Quinche

A graduate of the École Cantonale d'Art de Lausanne in photography and visual communication, Alizée Quinche explores the various means of expression of the photographic medium, opening up her practice to the visual arts: performance, installation and sound work.

Her sound performance explores the connections between the different concepts that make up our biotechnological present and future: humans, machines and bacteria. Connected in this way, they become a single entity: the cyborg. Through the electric current that flows between the human, sixteen strains of bacteria and the cables, the live show invites you on an ambient journey between soothing and deafening sounds, gentle and grating, utopian and dystopian.

Elie appropriates the violence of sound to convey it in her own terms, in a kind of dystopian sound trip that amplifies the daily over-stimulation of the brain.

At the heart of her performance is an exploration of the sounds emitted by the amplification of objects close to her trans identity, as well as the EDM samples that accompanied her in her early years of music. As she moves through space, she also plays with the resonance of sound through feedback, weaving a triptych between body, machine and space.

Living in Neuchâtel, she was part of the Embrayage 24-25 programme of support for emerging artists at the Case à Chocs in Neuchâtel. Before that, she toured all over Switzerland with her DJ project of the same name.
