Théa Bautista is a Franco-Mexican-American choreographer and dancer, and the founder of Althea Dance Company. Trained in Paris and New York, she has worked with artists and companies such as Damien Jalet, Giuliano Peparini, Compagnie R2, and Azul Dance Theater, performing internationally across France, the U.S., Mexico, and the U.K.

Her choreographic language blends fluid contemporary movement with physical intensity, exploring themes of identity, vulnerability, and self-perception. Deeply influenced by her multicultural background, Théa collaborates across disciplines, creating projects with visual artists, writers, and musicians. Notable performances and commissions include work at the Palais de Tokyo (Paris), La MaMa Theater (New York), The Place (London), and the Cité internationale des arts.

Théa’s work invites audiences into poetic, sometimes uneasy spaces where movement becomes a mirror for inner landscapes—bringing to light what is often left unspoken through the expressive language of the body.​

Chloe Bensahel est une artiste franco-américaine qui mêle performance, tissage, et multimédia pour mettre en lumière la relation entre langage et identité. Diplômée de la Parsons School de New York, celle-ci débute en tant qu’assistante de Sheila Hicks ainsi qu’auprès d’artistes textiles à Kyoto. Entre 2016 et 2018 elle effectue de nombreuses résidences en Australie (Australian Tapestry Workshop,) au Japon (Awagami Paper Factory) et aux Etats-Unis (Halcyon Arts Lab) avant de s’installer en France comme artiste en résidence au Mobilier National.

Parrainée par l’expertise des liciers de la manufacture de Beauvais (Basse lisse, Paris) Bensahel se penche sur la tapisserie française, en lui attribuant une nouvelle dimension en partenariat avec la Fondation Google Arts and Culture : Cette nouvelle matière tissée déclenche, par le geste, sons, lumières ou tout autre appareil connecté. 

Cette recherche est au coeur de son travail, récemment exposé aux Grandes Serres de Pantin et bientôt au Centre D’Art Gallifet d’Aix en Provence et à la Fondation EDF à paris. Elle est également pensionnaire de la Villa Albertine, durant laquelle elle séjournera à Boston afin de collaborer avec des chercheurs du MIT media Lab sur des nouvelles pièces codées.
