Isabella Tessier
£0.00
Isabella Tessier is an artist working between Newcastle and London. Her art practice centres around the methodologies used to research, record and capture the transient experience of performance. She has worked in collaboration with theatre companies, dance groups and schools around Newcastle including Alphabetti Theatre (2022), Theatre Space (2023) and with the Pele School Group (2023) to create a series of performance drawings. From the pages of the artist’s sketchbook gestural, expressive drawings are 're-performed' to create figurative lithographs.
Isabella Tessier is interested in depicting the physicality of movement and identity of a performance. A project in 2021, in which Tessier created a fictional collaboration with the image of a dancer from a 1898 mutoscope film reel, produced a series of prints that explore the relationship between herself as a viewer and the image of the dancer, Karina. Tessier positions herself as either a participant or witness depending on the nature of the collaborative, interdisciplinary relationship between artist and performer and explores how print can record these unique relationships.
