David Lavaysse (1976, Montpellier, France) is active across sound, writing and publishing, with nearly three decades of practice.
Rooted in record culture and music production, he extends these logics into series, editions and stage forms.
Presented notably at the Opéra de Montpellier, Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre, MUDAM Luxembourg, the Festival de Cannes, Arko Theater and the Seoul International Book Fair, his work moves between contemporary art, dance, theater, fashion and scientific research.
He also develops 1fuse, an editorial and production platform.
He is based in Seoul.
