Le monde merveilleux des masques de th\u00e9\u00e2tre, je suis tomb\u00e9 dedans quand j\u2019\u00e9tais petit\u2026 comme dirait Ob\u00e9lix !<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

J\u2019ai attrap\u00e9 le virus lors des cours de Commedia dell\u2019Arte de Monsieur Fabien Gargiulo, au cycle d\u2019orientation de Bagnes, dans le Valais, en Suisse, alors que j\u2019\u00e9tais encore un jeune adolescent. Cette exp\u00e9rience, qui m\u2019a profond\u00e9ment marqu\u00e9, m\u2019a donn\u00e9 l\u2019envie de devenir com\u00e9dien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quelques ann\u00e9es plus tard, je me suis int\u00e9ress\u00e9 \u00e0 la fabrication de masques, prolongeant ainsi mon amour du th\u00e9\u00e2tre par le travail de la mati\u00e8re et la cr\u00e9ation de personnages. J\u2019ai eu la chance d\u2019apprendre et de perfectionner cet artisanat, notamment la cr\u00e9ation de masques en cuir, aux c\u00f4t\u00e9s d\u2019un ami, Gilles Brot, qui tient son savoir-faire de Donato Sartori, ainsi que de mon \u00e9pouse, Jessica Nicholls, qui avait \u00e9tudi\u00e9 la Commedia dell\u2019Arte aupr\u00e8s d\u2019Antonio Fava, en Italie.<\/p>\n\n\n

Depuis, la fabrication de masques est devenue une part importante de mon travail artistique, \u00e0 la crois\u00e9e du th\u00e9\u00e2tre et de l\u2019artisanat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En 2010, j\u2019ai obtenu mon dipl\u00f4me \u00e0 l\u2019\u00c9cole Internationale de Th\u00e9\u00e2tre<\/a> Jacques Lecoq \u00e0 Paris, ainsi qu\u2019au Laboratoire d\u2019\u00c9tude du Mouvement. J\u2019ai \u00e9galement eu la chance de rencontrer Omar Porras et de b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier de son enseignement dynamique lors d\u2019une masterclass consacr\u00e9e au jeu masqu\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je me suis ensuite install\u00e9 \u00e0 Berlin, o\u00f9 j\u2019ai v\u00e9cu pendant dix ans. C\u2019est l\u00e0 que j\u2019ai rencontr\u00e9 mon \u00e9pouse, Jess et qu\u2019ensemble nous avons fond\u00e9 Shake Shake Theatre<\/a>. J\u2019ai notamment collabor\u00e9 avec la Drehb\u00fchne Berlin<\/a> et l\u2019OFAJ<\/a>, et enseign\u00e9 le th\u00e9\u00e2tre \u00e0 la Menagerie e.V.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mon \u00e9pouse \u00e9tant australienne, nous avons d\u00e9cid\u00e9 en 2022 de nous installer dans la campagne de la r\u00e9gion de Sydney. Nous avons aujourd\u2019hui deux enfants, Rose et L\u00e9o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je cr\u00e9e et joue \u00e9galement mes propres spectacles de marionnettes, en prenant part \u00e0 toutes les \u00e9tapes de leur cr\u00e9ation, de l\u2019\u00e9criture et de la mise en sc\u00e8ne jusqu\u2019\u00e0 la fabrication des d\u00e9cors et des accessoires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J\u2019enseigne le th\u00e9\u00e2tre dans le cadre des cours de NIDA<\/a> Open ainsi que dans mes propres ateliers. Je travaille \u00e9galement avec Clown Doctors Australia<\/a>, o\u00f9 j\u2019interviens dans des h\u00f4pitaux pour enfants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J\u2019ai aussi une passion pour la musique et je suis devenu accro du ukul\u00e9l\u00e9. Je fais de la peinture \u00e0 l\u2019huile et des illustrations.<\/p>\n\n\n
