Andrée Weschler
Andrée Weschler‘s artistic endeavours focus on using the physical body to explore the boundaries of acceptable social constructs. The performing body is used as a tool for discovery, often becoming material in itself. Her work also attempts to challenge the audience into reading her performance of bodily differences. Born in France, she has been living and practicing her art in Asia for more than 18 years. Her formative visual arts training were in Singapore, Australia and France. Her art practice encompasses Performance Art, Drawing, Video Art, Photography and Installation. At Les Beaux Arts de Paris, she worked in the atelier of Annette Messager.
