In my feminist reflections, the question of the systemic invisibility of women playfully intersected with my work as a puppeteer. Even as, in 2025, we patiently uncover all the recurring instances of women's erasure (in history, in public spaces, in our daily lives), I questioned the link between my struggles and my practices. And my contradictions, too. How, for example, do I render myself invisible in favor of the puppet and blend into the background, or conversely, how do I kill the puppet and step into the spotlight? Why did I choose this particular profession?.
 
A disturbing and sociologically attested phenomenon: it seems that from the age of 50, women mysteriously vanish from our representations…
But where are they going?
 
Cagoulée ou non, avec et sans marionnette, je vous propose de partager ces réflexions, qui me conduisent vers la création d’Invisible, monologue for a woman on the verge of disappearing, scheduled to premiere in the fall of 2028.
