About Me

Multimedia performance artist Nicole Peyrafitte was born in Luchon (French Pyrenees) into the 5th generation of a family of restaurateurs. As an autodidact, she considers each step of her work an attempt to fulfill her compulsion to learn through a process of immersion that generates performances incorporating voice / paintings / videos / writing & often cooking. Peyrafitte performs locally, nationally and in Europe. She also often collaborates with her partner, poet Pierre Joris. La Garbure Transcontinentale/The Bi-Continental Chowder was featured at the Estivada de Rodez 2006. For details information visit her website at: www.nicolepeyrafitte.com
