Hello,
I’m Chloé.
I was born in France.
I currently live and work in Ghent, Belgium.
I want to tell people’s stories to help them to live with each other, to help myself to live with others.
I like to explore different ways to tell stories like theatre plays, books, videos, installations, drawings, photographs...
I want to do something meaningful, to speak out and to give a voice to those who are usually not heard.
I believe theater can be a way to bring back rituals in our everyday life.
I design with a special attention for sustainability and second hand materials.
I like analog machines, handmade objects, strong contrasts and bold color choices.
If I’m not busy with a project, I’m probably backpacking with my analog camera.
You can read my graduation essay about my role as a theater designer in society here.
