For more than 40 years, he has developed a research and creation work inspired by the fundamental principles of Etienne Decroux’s corporeal mime.

He has been exploring themes specific to the Théâtre du Mouvement company (animality, displacement of masks on the body, human walking, musicality of movement, bodily manifestations of states of thought and emotion) while interacting with other art forms (dance, theatre, music, storytelling, hip-hop, circus), scientific subjects (neurology, psychology, anthropology) and communication disciplines.
