Georgia René-Worms, lives and works in Paris
As a curator-writer It’s work is structured around two axes: documentary – generally based on feminist figures – and narrative. There she develops an experimental writing, in the vein of new narrative. Since 2020, and based on her personal experience, she has been reflecting on the possibility of establishing a corpus, other than that of scientific literature, to address the history of sick bodies in an emancipatory gesture. Her research and writings are conceived as life experiences in which intimacy and work interpenetrate. Her practice ranges from curating exhibitions to writing and producing installations. Her practice constantly raises the question of exposing the text and disseminating the knowledge she manipulates and produces.
