Comment écrire une action.
Être radicalement intime et politique.
En restant en contact avec le public.
En se permettant d’être légitime et vulnérable.
N’ayons pas peur des maux.
Explorons en urgence le signifiant et les possibilités cathartiques du médium PERFORMANCE.
TOPIC : COLORISM
Ophélie Mac
aka Mac Coco, is a performance artist, ceramist and teacher and an Afro-feminist activist. She works between institutions, independence and associations. Following certain observations, in 2019 she initiated the opening of FATSABBATS, a space BY and FOR LGBTQIA+ communities who have been victims of racism, which has evolved since 2021 into a collective format. In parallel to her work as a performer, she is also involved in Rebecca Chaillon's performance CARTE NOIRE NOMMEE DESIR.
Today, at the crossroads of these various media and forms of expression, she makes the link between social justice and culture, trying to set up systems of mutual aid and alternative learning for the communities concerned, working with a number of other collectives.
