Nemo Flouret — Take Me Somewhere

Némo Flouret

Derniers Feux (Last Fires) research residency

As part of our ongoing exchange with Actoral Festival in Marseille taking place throughout 2024, artist Némo Flouret will undertake a research residency in Studio Somewhere, connecting with Scottish artists.

About the residency
This residency serves as a reflective moment for Derniers Feux before its final staging, providing time to deepen my choreographic tools and to refine the dramaturgical dynamics of the performance. My stay in Glasgow coincides withGuy Fawkes Night celebrations, a serendipitous context since Derniers Feux is about the reunion of a group of people set against the backdrop of a fireworks display.

About the artist

Némo Flouret, born in 1995, from Orléans (FR), based in Brussels, choreographer, performer and multidisciplinary artist. He develops site specific projects, performances crossing different mediums, usually in hybrid spaces outside theaters. Such as “900 Something Days Spent in the XXth Century” (2021), a performance conceived for post-industrial/urban spaces, and “What we found in the solitude” (2019), a duet taking place in a tunnel. Since 2019 he has been collaborating with the choreographer Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, co-creating in close collaboration with Tessa Hall a solo as part of the “Dark Red Project” (2021) at the Fondation Beyeler (Basel), and the site specific project “FORÊT” (2022) that they co-signed for the Louvre Museum in Paris as part of the Festival d’Automne. He now starts a new project called Derniers Feux, fusing choreography, music, and pyrotechny, made both for the theater or for any other location. This project will premiere in la Comédie de Genève in June 2025.
