"Dominique is searching for a new invisible space which only comes out of her body, beyond any intellectual meaning."
Takeshige Shinichi


I am a water body and I wish to remember how to swim on dry land?
The movements of my practice happen in a Space of the Nameless. My work is less about identity or medium and more about energy as a source of knowing: how it flows through the body, shifts between form and formlessness, and continually shape-shifts over time. I connect dance, sound, visual art, materiality, and electronics to sense, embody, and transmit energetic states.
My practice is intuitive and open-ended—a minor gesture (Erin Manning) that happens with or without human audiences, entertaining invisible presences and ancestral forces. It unfolds as a devotional process that begins in the microcosmic orbit of the body, to extend into macrocosmic rhythms, where dreams, intuitions, and emotions fold into the larger field of space and time.
Energy never dies; it changes state. This principle of perpetual energy—present in Buddhist, Daoist, and Sufi traditions—guides my practice as a counterpoint to systems that enclose and commodify energy as labour, productivity, or self-worth. Against this scarcity logic, I seek to open spaces of metamorphosis, that support the work of collective imagination and the sacred rebirthing of life.
My works flow as a continuum, and rather than falling into project or medium, they interpenetrate each other endlessly. The triad of Tantra (embodied practice), Mantra (sonic exploration), and Yantra (visual scores and diagrams) is a way to orient the visitor through their permutations. Together they form a practice devoted to porousness and the possibilities of being present and attentive to the world by listening to the waters of the body.
