February - March 2024

Zoé Couppé. Nevers, 1997
Guilhem Prat. Montpellier, 1997 

Together with Léo Peinturier, Zoé Couppé and Guilhem Prat are behind the project “At the same time”, dedicated to the creation of sound objects and printed forms, sent by post by subscription or passed from hand to hand. Initially broadcast on radio (*Duuu radio, Lyl radio), the sound creation is then amplified in visual and editorial form, becoming both a trace of a performance and a graphic experiment. “At the same time” questions the gesture of publishing, or how publication activates relational and affective exchanges.

Zoé Couppé, born in Nevers in 1997, lives and works in Paris. Graduated from HEAR in Strasbourg (2019) and KASK in Ghent (2021), she also studied at Julie Béna and Jakub Jansa’s performance studio in Brno, Czech Republic. In 2022, she joins the Dutch Art Institute, a traveling research program. With a relationship to orality, exchange and listening, her work draws on different narrative threads to create a complex network of stories, and features characters who have enigmatic conversations and interactions with each other. Recently, she has performed at Fondation Pernod Ricard, Paris (2023), *Duuu Radio, Paris (2023), Festival Inact, Strasbourg (2022), Frac Bourgogne, Besançon (2021) and exhibited her work at Tic Galerie, Brno (2023).

Guilhem Prat, born in Montpellier in 1997, lives and works in Paris. Artist and graphic designer graduated from HEAR in Strasbourg in 2021, he works alone or with others, with the central idea of reading and offering to read, listening or making others listen, to no longer necessarily think in terms of productions, but towards the way these circulate, communicate and exist in our contemporary environment. He recently performed at *Duuu Radio and Treize in Paris, and was resident at Unpae in Roccacaramanico, where he edited the booklet “il soffiatore et le soupir”.
