    •             my art practice is an avenue for physical and material engagement with the environments that I inhabit as a performer. I am constantly searching for an intersection of a physical vocabulary within PERFORMANCE ART with expressions and media that revolve around spaces, objects, materials, sounds, videos and audiences, in an action that connects the political with the poetic.

    Rym Hayouni —
    films, performance art, and spatial gestures      
    I stand for the land, for justice, freedom and dignity and devote my body for the radical poetic expression of this.

    My art practice is an avenue for physical and material engagement with the environments that I inhabit as a performer. I am constantly searching for an intersection of a physical vocabulary within PERFORMANCE ART with expressions and media that revolve around spaces, objects, materials, sounds, videos and audiences, in an action that connects the political with the poetic.

    I focus on Context-specific interventions in spaces, that I see as fundamentally political, underpinning the possibility of a collective action and radical interconnection.
    My work is oriented towards procedures of reconfiguration and reconversion of visual signs, auditory atmospheres, spatial settings, signals, and trajectories that instruct movements or block them—all aspects of the political programming of spaces that determine the models through which we experience them —

    I also tend toward boundaries-pushing physicality and durational performances. 

    My artistic journey has been enriched by a range of national and international experiences:
    Vest&Page co-creative performance opera with hamar performance art festival- hamar (no), BEIrout Summer School for Theater and Performing Arts-  Beirout (LEBN), Halaqat: Politics of Bodies and Spaces - Brussels (Be), International Light Art Project Interference - Tunis (TN), Venice Performance Art Week - Venice (IT), Les Ateliers Sauvages, Algier (ALG)    , and more locally. 

    After years of theatre practice, which began on the stage of the Teatroo Studio and continued with various Tunisian and some european directors, I began experimenting in front of the camera with a small role with Bachir Derrais, and more important roles in short films such as Rushes by Haithem Sakouhi. In 2020 I played the role of Noura in Black Medusa, a feature film by Ismaeil and Youssef Chebbi. In 2022, I starred in my first leading role in a feature film, Bunkoeur, directed by Nidhal Chatta. And in 2022 I had a co-leading role in Kamikaze, a film by Hassen Marzougi still in post-production.
