Aurélie Dubois: I am a conjugate mutant.
G. Wen: : Tell me about your work. What is your favorite artistic medium?
A. D.: My research focuses on the human being as a whole, between what they make visible and what they hide about who they are.

G. Wen: How do you approach feminism?
A. D.: As a hybrid.
G. Wen: Can you tell me about the political dimension of your artistic work?
A. D.: About the revelation of the pulsional belly-button of freedom of expression beheaded without brotherhood.
G. Wen: What is the poetic process?
A. D.: The love of God.
G. Wen: Where do you see yourself on the French artistic scene?
A. D.: Among the brass.
G. Wen: Tell me about your artistic references.

A. D.: Iconic scenes for symbolic figurations. Homage, quotation, recycling, and after… Amnesia of a story.
G. Wen: Tell me about your performances and the link with music.
A. D.: My performances are a moment of revelation, a laboratory of the powers of the voice embodied by liberated states of mind. How to paint the air of the wind.
