Noémie Goudal

Country: France | Born: 1984

No�mie lives and works between Paris and London. She won the HSBC Award in 2013.

No�mie Goudal has long been drawn to the meeting point of nature and culture, or as she puts it, the organic as �invaded� by the man-made. Goudal also feels a strong attraction to the theatre, and combines the two leanings in the series Les Amants (the Lovers), in which Cascade and Promenade play a part. However, the two works address the issues in different ways: the one is a photograph of a theatrical installation, its school-play hokeyness meant to underline its absurdity; the other is a staging where a photograph plays the main role. On both stages, real nature is relegated to best-supporting actress.
